Hello Michael
There is a patch for this that is not yet tested.
I would appreciate feedback if you would like to test this.

Subject: [PATCH] yaffs: Compile with Linus' mainline
There have been some changes with how setattr works and changing
clear/delete inode to the new evict_inode.
Unfortunately these hanges are still called 2.6.35 so there is a
nasty kludge to distinguish these changes from the released 2.6.35.
You need to define YAFFS_LINUS_TORVALDS_MAINLINE.
