Re: problems with mtp , better to make a command-line option to canswitch off mtp device search on booting

[Linus Torvalds]

So I still think you're crazy to compile in MTD support at all, but
hey, I do agree that it is supposed to work.

The "L440GX flash mapping failed" message isn't new, and I doubt that
that particular driver is the problem. Can you try to narrow it down
to _which_ MTD driver causes problems? Enable MTD again, and try to
enable about half the devices to "bisect" the issue.
