I believe the regression for which this patch was written appears in
the following mainline major revision numbers:
2.6.36
2.6.37
2.6.38
2.6.39
Right now, I see that the fix ("mtd: return badblockbits back") has
been applied to the 2.6.38-stable and 2.6.39-stable trees, but it
probably should be applied to 2.6.37-stable and 2.6.36-stable as well.
It definitely should *not* be applied to 2.6.35 or earlier (as you
found it with the build error).
Thanks,
Brian
