It's not a problem, that it's specifically for this CPU. 
The problem is that it's totaly incompatible to MTD stuff. It's based on 2 
year old MTD code and does not match the current MTD-CVS implementation. A 
lot of stuff like bad block mapping ... is in there, which is likely to be a 
PITA, if you try to run current JFFS2 code on top of it.
