Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mtd core: call driver write function with complete buffer
Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2012 20:03:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1354215786-25615-2-git-send-email-s.hauer@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1354215786-25615-1-git-send-email-s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

mtd->write is supposed to loop around pages internally, no need
to do this in mtd_write. This fixes a huge write performance drop
with the m25p80 driver when it was converted to a mtd driver recently.
Since mtd->writesize is 1 for this driver mtd_write ended up doing
single byte writes on the flash.
