Linus, please pull from git://git.infradead.org/mtd-2.6.git

It contains the fix for the above regression, along with a small number of other bug fixes -- specifically for XATTR-related oopses, and broken handling of setattr() in JFFS2. There's actually a couple of things which aren't strictly bug fixes too, but those are very minor. If you insist, I could redo the history to omit them, but it's probably cleaner not to.

Artem Bityutskiy (1):
[JFFS2] Fix buffer length calculations in jffs2_get_inode_nodes()

David Howells (1):
[MTD] generalise the handling of MTD-specific superblocks

David Woodhouse (4):
[JFFS2] Fix BUG() caused by failing to discard xattrs on deleted files. [JFFS2] Fix potential memory leak of dead xattrs on unmount. [MTD] Fix error checking after get_mtd_device() in get_sb_mtd functions [JFFS2] Fix obsoletion of metadata nodes in jffs2_add_tn_to_tree()

Mike Frysinger (1):
[MTD] [MAPS] don't force uclinux mtd map to be root dev
