  139. Although most flash chips have an erase size too large to be useful
  140. as block devices, it is possible to use MTD devices which are based
  141. on RAM chips in this manner. This block device is a user of MTD
  142. devices performing that function.
  143. At the moment, it is also required for the Journalling Flash File
  144. System(s) to obtain a handle on the MTD device when it's mounted
  145. (although JFFS and JFFS2 don't actually use any of the functionality
  146. of the mtdblock device).
  147. Later, it may be extended to perform read/erase/modify/write cycles
  148. on flash chips to emulate a smaller block size. Needless to say,
  149. this is very unsafe, but could be useful for file systems which are
  150. almost never written to.
