Crash in mtd_cls_suspend because mtd is NULL.

Hi,
I just tried to suspend my GTA04 (OMAP based mobile phone platform) running
3.3-rc2 and it crashed in mtd_cls_suspend because mtd was NULL.

So for me, it looks like the following patch is a regression.

Is there anything I can do to help find the correct resolution here.

(It has some flash memory but I am not using it at all).

Thanks,
NeilBrown

mtd: do not use mtd->suspend and mtd->resume directly

Just call the 'mtd_suspend()' and 'mtd_resume()' - they will do nothing
if the operation is not defined.
