Actually, my patch has the potentially undesirable consequence of
allowing only one of the three flash-related proc files to be open at
any time, whereas the previous behavior enforced exclusive open on a
per-file basis.

If you want something for 2.6.25, I think the patch Jens posted is
of lower risk.
