It does make sense to describe the function in the "interface" file, but
in the kernel we add the kernel-doc comments above the function
implementation, this is just the established practice. You may find some
examples where the description is in the .h file, but this is rare (yes,
the kernel is fare from being consistent).

So please, move the descriptive comments to mtdcore.c.

Also, please, check the kernel-doc comments buy feeding your file to
scripts kernel-doc and make sure it does not generate errors or
warnings. 

Please, do not re-send all patches, just this one, if possible. Note, if
something requires a minor conflict resolution - I can do this.
