I posted the patches to better explain the issue I faced - this new parameter I introduced in topology.c is accessible only when I pass the root disk dev node to mkswap (as /dev/mmcblkX) and not when invoked with /dev/mmcblkXpY) (i.e a partition with the device). So how should the topology probe be invoked in this case ?
