>5824 is the usable size of the file system on mtdblock3, i.e. after subtracting the overhead for file system bookkeeping.
By default mtd partitions were like
cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name
31 0 8192 mtdblock0 31 1 256 mtdblock1 31 2 2048 mtdblock2 31 3 5824 mtdblock3 31 4 64 mtdblock4
mtdblock3 was having 5824 blocks and 5824 blocks were able to use,
I think you are missing my point, i have increase size of mtdblock3 but i am unable use whole partion and idk why
kindly also inform me how i can change erasesize of a partition

5884 is the raw size of mtdblock3.
