Joern Engel wrote a mphysmap driver some time ago.  It works fairly
well.  You might be able to find it if you google for it.  Not sure why
it wasn't included in MTD CVS.

Otherwise, you could always write your own mapping driver.  There are
multiple examples that deal with two or more flash banks in CVS.
