> 
> Commit 1eeef2d7483a ("mtd: handle partitioning on devices with 0
> erasesize") introduced a regression on heterogeneous erase region devices.
> Alignment of the partition was tested against the master eraseblock size
> which can be bigger than the slave one, thus leading to some partitions being
> marked as read-only.
> 
> Update wr_alignment to match this slave erasesize after this erasesize has
> been determined by picking the biggest erasesize of all the regions
> embedded in the MTD partition.
