[PATCH v3] libmtd: add helper funcs for getting regioninfo and locked info

Mike Frysinger vapier at gentoo.org
Tue Jun 7 11:52:05 EDT 2011


This extends the libmtd with the helper functions:
	mtd_regioninfo: interface to MEMGETREGIONINFO
	mtd_islocked: interface to MEMISLOCKED

Users of these functions will follow shortly ...

v3
	- add a "islocked_supported" field to handle older kernels nicely
