Maxime, I've cleaned up comments, added your signed-off-by and cc
stable. Is this OK?
It would also be nice to get an ack from Maxim Levitsky.

Subject: [PATCH] mtd: fix NAND pwrite in raw mode
Since commit 782ce79a45b3b850b108896fcf7da26754061c8f ("cleanup the
nand_do_write_ops") 'pwrite()' to a NAND device fails with '-EINVAL'
which comes from:
/* Don't allow multipage oob writes with offset */
if (ops->ooboffs && (ops->ooboffs + ops->ooblen > oobmaxlen))
return -EINVAL;
because 'ops->ooboffs' was uninitialized. This patch fixes the issue.
Artem: clean-up comment, add stable.
