Serial flash memory support

Hi everybody,

I'm starting to code kernel driver for SPI serial flash memory (we are using 
M25Pxx chips from ST). In the end I would like to see this chip to hold jffs2 
fs and be mtd-compatible. After quick inspection of current CVS code I didn't 
find any code in there for SPI flash. So my questions are:

Has anybody done something on the SPI flash memory devices already?

If I start to implement mtd driver for this chip what functions do I need?

I've glimpsed over the mtd_info struct which contains lots of function pointers 
- are they all necessary?

regards,
hinko k
