mtdblock read only device broken?

Is the mtd read only block device broken in general or is it only for
mips that it
doesn't work?

Is it sheduled for removal / fixing or is it just forgotten because
everyone in the know uses the read / write driver which works.

The warning in the config option help for the read only driver seems to
imply
that it is much more reliable to use it than the caching R/W driver,
hence the
fact that I bothered looking at it at all, perhaps this recommendation
should at
least be changed.
