From 9def12cae33d2d3ea2dd56b197fd3dfb3ad60bf4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Roese Date: Thu, 27 Nov 2008 14:05:15 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] MTD: Fix problem based on non-working relocation (list head mtd_partitions) Don't use LIST_HEAD() but initialize the struct via INIT_LIST_HEAD() upon first call of add_mtd_partitions(). Otherwise this won't work on platforms where the relocation is broken (like MIPS or PPC).
