Jamie,

If we hear no objections, call kirkwood_nand_init() with no partition
entries, then put the partition entries in the commandline in the dts.
This is what Arnaud Patard is doing with the Iomega iConnect:

mtdparts=orion_nand:0xc0000 at 0x0(uboot),0x20000 at 0xa0000(env),0x300000 at 0x100000(zImage),0x300000 at 0x540000(initrd)...

Then, in the last patch remove the mtdparts from the commandline in the
dts and add the partition entries appropriately.

thx,

Jason.
