The partitions are all sorted well by the @offset.
But we should check if there are errors in the partitions.

The following cases are regarded as errors:
  [1] There is a hole in the partitions, such as
      #gpmi-nand:100m(boot),100m@100m(kernel),1g@200m(rootfs)

  [2] There is a overlap in the partitions, such as
      #gpmi-nand:100m@0(boot),100m@50m(kernel),1g@150m(rootfs)

  [3] Not all the partitions are set with @offset, and there are
      more then one partion whose offset is OFFSET_CONTINUOUS.
      #gpmi-nand:100m@0(boot),100m(kernel),-(usr)

Could you please kill these constants, they are not really needed I
think.

Just print the error messages in this function and return -EINVAL.

Just do

if (ret)
	return ret;


and kill the huge 'switch' that you added.

If the cmdline have two mtd-ids such as:
   
gpmi-nand:100m(root),100m@100m(kernel),1g@200m(rootfs);edb7212-nand:-(home)

The `return` will also bypass the `edb7212-nand`.

Is it acceptable?

Best Regards

I thought the whole idea is to refuse command lines which are ambiguous
or make no sense, no?

You could actually do this in two step and split your 3rd patch:

1. Add 'check_partitions' which prints an error messages and returns
-EINVAL if the command line has overlaps or gaps or other bad things.
But ignore the return code in 'mtdpart_setup_real()'

2. Make 'mtdpart_setup_real()' check for the error code and propagate it
up, so we'll have a prink + real refusal.
