It is really sad to see that patchset.

Indeed small.
All the changes in this patchset are really minor and optional.
I could have dropped them.


I did much more that that.
I made the memstick code readable so not only you could understand it
I also wrote ms_block.c while adding common support.
I made your code use that support.

It is really sad that you are doing that.
