Thanks for the very quick response.

I thought that I did provide exactly this information, when I indicated that this function no longer even existed in upstream.
The replacement in upstream was to fold this functionality into another function -- but I found that function much more complex and difficult to follow.
So I went with the simple fix.

I also don't have that. I might post it to the mtd list, to see if they have any interest in either approving it as-is for 3.0 series, or doing the backport of the current code.
Thanks again for your time.
