Hi Cai,
Sorry for the late review. See below some minor comments.

How about some more verbose commit message explaining the impact
of this change, or clearly stating there's no functionality change
(as it should given the mtdparts parameter _must_ be kept compatible).

Hm.. this header removal seems an unrelated change, right?
I'd suggest to send a separate patch for this.

I'd like to review the patch in detail and test it, but being a bit old,
the patch doesn't apply as it is on v3.12-rc5. Care to resend an update?
Brian: I saw you want to move forward with this. I guess we can give
it a test, and if all the possible 'mtdparts' use cases work, then
we shouldn't object the cleanup, right?
