Suggested patch for mtdchar.c

[John Whitney]

Hello,

I've checked out the latest MTD source, and when I added it to my 2.6.0-pre9
LinuxPPC kernel tree, encountered devfs issues with mtdchar.c.  Listed below
is a patch created from my updated file.  Sorry if something about this has
been posted before, but I didn't find any mention of it in the archives.
