Hi Boris,

Cool, mtd_concat should be seen as mtd devices concatenated? Could be
spi-nors and rawnand. So _suspend() needs to be called for every device
layer?

From what I see here, mtd_suspend()/mtd_resume() is called for every mtd
device. Before this patch mtd_suspend() would only have effect on the
first device as master->master.suspended is set and then calls to
device specific _suspend() is skipped.

Correct?

/Sean
