This makes the driver erase a block when it doesn't find any
existing saved log messages which is safer than assuming the
flash was already erased.

Add a magic number to logged kernel oops messages so that they
can be more accurately detected rather than just having to rely
on the sequence number. This also allows easier detection of
saved crashes by userspace.

Various minor cleaups to mtdoops:
* Don't support the mtd->erasesize < OOPS_PAGE_SIZE case
* Tweak printks and make the device mtdoops connects to more visible
* CON_PRINTBUFFER flag is uneeded

Writing to the flash needs to be done in a workqueue. The console
write functions may be called in any context which can lead to

mtdoops wasn't ensuring data was flushed to flash in crash situations
after recent changes in mainline kernels as tracking the
oops_in_progress variable was no longer enough. We can use the "unblank"
console call as a sync call to tell us to write out the buffer though.
Therefore add a sync function to mtdoops and call this when console
unblank events occur.

Kernel oops and panic messages are invaluable when debugging crashes.
These messages often don't make it to flash based logging methods (say a
syslog on jffs2) due to the overheads involved in writing to flash.
This patch allows you to turn an MTD partition into a circular log
buffer where kernel oops and panic messages are written to. The messages
are obtained by registering a console driver and checking
oops_in_progress. Erases are performed in advance to maximise the
chances of a saving messages.
To activate it, add console=ttyMTDx to the kernel commandline (where x
is the mtd device number to use).
