Err.. now I'm doubly confused.  Initially I thought you'd need to
change the size part of reg somewhere, but your description above just
convinced me you didn't (because you were essentially just shifting a
4M map up into the high rather than low 4M of the 64M space).  Now
you're saying you do..
  
If you tell the mtd driver that the flash is 64M, when it is really 4M, 
it goes oops. So you do have to get the size right in the reg field.
Ah!  The top-level reg field, not the partitions.  Now I understand.

Except, since the 4M layout is the expected future norm, I would have
thought that's what you'd encode into the dts, and mangle it into the
64M version, rather than the other way around.
