This is just basic *nix file handling.

Once you have mounted a file system, the files are then available under that 
mount point.

For example, if you mounted yaffs as:

mount -t yaffs2 /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt

then the files will be in the directory tree /mnt

You can create files and directories there and manipulate them just the same 
as files on the disk:

mkdir /mnt/new-dir
echo "This is my file" > /mnt/my-file

ls /mnt

Of course you can. The code is all there.

Edit in your changes and then 

make

That will build a new module yaffs2multi.ko

You have to unmount the file system and unload the old module then load the 
new module and remount:

umount /mnt
rmmod yaffs2multi
insmod yaffs2multi.ko
mount ...
