Subject: [PATCH][RFC] mtd: bcm47xxpart: lower minimal blocksize to 4Ki (from
64Ki)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Some devices like Netgear WNR1000v3 or WGR614v10 have partitions aligned
to 0x1000. Using bigger blocksize stopped us from detecting some parts.

Most of supported devices use flashes with erasesize 0x10000 (64Ki), so
this change shouldn't affect them (no regressions expected).
Any objections?
