New to the Linux kernel development community here...
This is a patch for a bug I found in an older version of the kernel I'm using on a project (2.6.10). (The defect still exists in the latest version of the kernel 2.6.28.7, hence the reason for the post.) For NAND chips with large block sizes (128K in our case) I was getting an out of memory error when I attempted to store the bad block table in flash. This patch fixes that error by allocating memory in the same way it's done in another function in the file. Feedback desired: Does the fix seem reasonable? If so, what else must be done to have it incorporated into the source tree? Thx. The information contained in this message is privileged and intended only for the recipients named.
