X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=024629fdca1bbb44a25d40c2362a878a7a67ce3b;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

mtd: bcm47xxpart: find NVRAM partitions in middle blocks

Old devices used to have NVRAM at the very end of flash and they could
be unaligned (starting at some offset in a block).
In new devices NVRAM can be located quite randomly, however it seems to
always start at the beginning of a block. For example Netgear R6250 has
NVRAM located right after the bootloader, before the kernel partition.
