Do I need to handle any thing in the request function to handle
read/writes to the device partitions?
It looks like you've done most of what you need; in 2.6, block drivers
need not worry about the details of partitioning.
Lots of details in the block drivers chapter

Dear all,
I have a driver implemented to support single partition in 2.6 kernels.
I have a requirement of supporting multiple partitions in my block driver to
support flash media devices.
I have modified the alloc_disk(1) to alloc_dosk(16) to support a MAX of 16
partitions. This way I have
