Sometimes I get the feeling that you do this only to break other peoples
setup:

This is because you haven't provided a mtd->block_isbad callback. Instead
we have an empty m25p_oob0 device for a flash which cannot have bad blocks
at all. Have you ever done basic tests with this driver? This really
does not motivate me to take a 40k patch.
