The ps3vram driver is a plain block device driver since commit
f507cd22035fdadd5dbb476dd05e9e7ee21c3b84 ("ps3/block: Replace mtd/ps3vram
by block/ps3vram").

For the record: while I did send out this patch back in 2013, I didn't resend it
yesterday.

Geoff:
   1. Please fix your scripts (start using git-send-email?), to avoid sending
      fake email. Thanks!

Indeed, 2/3 of these patches ended up in my spam.

   2. I am grateful you didn't forget about this patch, and that it got applied.

I'll add:

3. Your git base should be the base of where you want this to be pulled in, or prior. Yours was 4.1-rc7, and I'm not pulling in tons of unrelated changes for 3 patches. If you are targeting the next release and don't depend on existing block changes, then your base should be 4.0. If you are dependent on changes in the block tree, the block tree should be your base.
