SubjectRe: [PATCH v2] mtdoops: Fix the size of the header read buffer.
Hi Jean-Marc,

It looks like you changed the title when answering to my question, I
thought this was a v2 and could not find it in patchwork. That is
because the v2 does not actually exist?

I might have checked another function then. Indeed the fix looks legit.

Can you please send a v2 with:
- Your two patches in the same series (formatted with git-format-patch
to get the dependency/order right)
- In the other commit, drop the reference pointing to (I believe) a
commit hash that is local to your tree only.
- Use the right prefix ("mtd: mtdoops:").

And we should be good.
