of_match_device could return NULL, and so can cause a NULL
pointer dereference later.

Nice find, but can you split this into two patches ? And the prefix is
'mtd' without capital letter.

Thanks

That's a purely hypothetical bug since the core already matched
against one of the compatible in the of_match table to decide to attach
the device to this driver. Having of_match_device() return NULL here
means something went seriously wrong (memory corruption ?).

This being said, I'm not strongly opposed to this patch. Just a minor
comment below.

Thanks,

Boris

Add an empty line here.
