+/*
+ * Partition definition structure:
+ *
+ * An array of struct partition is passed along with a MTD object to
+ * mtd_device_register() to create them.
+ *
+ * For each partition, these fields are available:
+ * name: string that will be used to label the partition's MTD device.
+ * types: some partitions can be containers using specific format to describe
+ *	embedded subpartitions / volumes. E.g. many home routers use "firmware"
+ *	partition that contains at least kernel and rootfs. In such case an
+ *	extra parser is needed that will detect these dynamic partitions and
+ *	report them to the MTD subsystem. If set this property stores an array
+ *	of parser names to use when looking for subpartitions.
+ * size: the partition size; if defined as MTDPART_SIZ_FULL, the partition
+ * 	will extend to the end of the master MTD device.
+ * offset: absolute starting position within the master MTD device; if
+ * 	defined as MTDPART_OFS_APPEND, the partition will start where the
+ *	previous one ended; if MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK, at the next erase block;
+ *	if MTDPART_OFS_RETAIN, consume as much as possible, leaving size
+ *	after the end of partition.
+ * mask_flags: contains flags that have to be masked (removed) from the
+ * 	master MTD flag set for the corresponding MTD partition.
+ * 	For example, to force a read-only partition, simply adding
+ * 	MTD_WRITEABLE to the mask_flags will do the trick.
+ * add_flags: contains flags to add to the parent flags
+ *
+ * Note: writeable partitions require their size and offset be
+ * erasesize aligned (e.g. use MTDPART_OFS_NEXTBLK).
