MTD device minor numbers, documentation wrong?

[Johan Adolfsson]

The 2.4.0 Documentation/devices.txt says that
even MTD minor numbers are readonly, but that doesn't seem to
be correct when trying things in real life.
Is the documentation wrong, or do I have the wrong version of it?
Or are we doing something wrong when registering partitions?
