Should be "const char *" since this is a printable string that is not
supposed to be modified.

MTD folks (Richard, Marek, Brian, Cyrille), I'd like a feedback on this
patch.

I personally don't like the idea of putting NAND-specific (in this case
it's even more specific than NAND because it's only applicable to
ONFI-NANDs that support the READ_UNIQUE_ID command) stuff into mtd_info,
but there's currently no easy way to create NAND-specific sysfs entry.

We could add a nand_register() wrapper that would call
mtd_device_register() and add sysfs/debugfs entries after that, but
that implies patching all NAND drivers (again).

Any idea how we could make it less invasive?

Also, is there any other flash device that expose some sort of
unique-id, and if there is, what's the format?

Regards,

Boris
