+ * @nr_parts: number of mtd_partitions for static partitoning
+ * @type: optional flash device type (e.g. m25p80 vs m25p64), for use
+ *	with chips that can't be queried for JEDEC or other IDs
+ *
+ * Board init code (in arch/.../mach-xxx/board-yyy.c files) can
+ * provide information about SPI flash parts (such as DataFlash) to
+ * help set up the device and its appropriate default partitioning.
+ *
+ * Note that for DataFlash, sizes for pages, blocks, and sectors are
+ * rarely powers of two; and partitions should be sector-aligned.
