This fixes check for partitions that don't start at beginning of their
parents. Missing partition's offset in formula could result in forcing
read-only incorrectly.

I think you are doing the change at the wrong place, if you want to
check where the partition *starts* you should do it a few lines above.
But I think the check should be here as well, probably.

The check where the partition *starts* is OK and I don't mean to change
it. The bug is about calculating absolute *end* address of partition.


Anyway, I just applied on my local tree a patch rewriting a bit the
partitioning scheme, could you please rebase on top of today's
mtd/next and resend this patch updated?

Here is the change that I've done at this place:
	-       tmp = part_absolute_offset(parent) + slave->mtd.size;
	+       tmp = mtd_get_master_ofs(child, 0) + child->size;

I'll give it a try.
