It is really evil to suggest user-space people to use kernel printk's
for fetching NAND geometry information. Printk's may change at any time.
Tomorrow there may be a clean-up patch which fixes a spelling or improve
the grammar, and this may break the apps. Printk's are really not
intended to be the kernel<->user-space ABI.
