I'm still getting my head around how git works. I am a bit confused as to why 
all the yaffs direct stuff was put into git since this is of zero use in a 
kernel.

I think it would be eaiser to achieve a cleaner first load using the patch-in 
process on a clean kernel, then just scoop out fs/yaffs2 and the fs Kconfig 
etc. That would at least provide a much more integrated starting point.
