However, they ignore the possibility of `*ppos > mtd->size`, allowing the calculation of `count` to wrap around. `mtdchar_lseek()` prevents seeking beyond mtd->size, but the pread/pwrite syscalls bypass this. I haven't found any codepath on which this actually causes dangerous behavior, but it seems like a sensible change anyway.
