The UBIFS WL worker may encounter read errors and there is logic
which makes a decision whether we should do one of:
1. cancel the operation and move the PEB with the read errors to
the 'erroneous' list;
2. switch to R/O mode.
ATM, only -EIO errors trigger 1., other errors trigger 2. The idea
is that if we know we encountered an I/O error, do 1. Otherwise,
we do not know how to react, and do 2., just in case. E.g., if
the underlying driver became crazy because of a bug, we do not
want to harm any data, and switch to R/O mode.
This patch does 2 things:
1. Makes sure reads from the source PEB always cause 1. This is
more consistent with other reads which come from the upper
layers and never cause R/O.
2. Teaches UBI to do 1. also on -EBADMSG, UBI_IO_BAD_VID_HDR,
-ENOMEM, and -ETIMEOUT. But this is only when reading the
target PEB.
This preblems were hunted by Adrian Hunter.

[Artem: re-worked the patch: made it release resources when the
module is unloaded, made it do module referencing, made it really
independent on UBI, tested it with the UBI test-suite which can
be found in ubi-2.6.git/tests/ubi-tests, re-named most of the
funcs/variables to get rid of the "ubi" word and make names
consistent.]

UBI volume notifications are intended to create the API to get clients
notified about volume creation/deletion, renaming and re-sizing. A
client can subscribe to these notifications using 'ubi_volume_register()'
and cancel the subscription using 'ubi_volume_unregister()'. When UBI
volumes change, a blocking notifier is called. Clients also can request
"added" events on all volumes that existed before client subscribed
to the notifications.
If we use notifications instead of calling functions like 'ubi_gluebi_xxx()',
we can make the MTD emulation layer to be more flexible: build it as a
separate module and load/unload it on demand.
[Artem: many cleanups, rework locking, add "updated" event, provide
device/volume info in notifiers]

This patch improves UBI errors handling. ATM UBI switches to
R/O mode when the WL worker fails to read the source PEB.
This means that the upper layers (e.g., UBIFS) has no
chances to unmap the erroneous PEB and fix the error.
This patch changes this behaviour and makes UBI put PEBs
like this into a separate RB-tree, thus preventing the
WL worker from hitting the same read errors again and
again.
But there is a 10% limit on a maximum amount of PEBs like this.
If there are too much of them, UBI switches to R/O mode.
Additionally, this patch teaches UBI not to panic and
switch to R/O mode if after a PEB has been copied, the
target LEB cannot be read back. Instead, now UBI cancels
the operation and schedules the target PEB for torturing.
The error paths has been tested by ingecting errors
into 'ubi_eba_copy_leb()'.

This patch fixes a minor problem where we may fail to wake
upe the UBI background thread. This is not fatal at all,
it may just result at sligtly worse performace for a short
period of time, just because the thread will be woken up
when real I/O on the UBI starts.
Anywey, the issue is the race condition between
'ubi_attach_mtd_dev()' and 'ubi_thread()'. If we do not
serialize them, the 'wake_up_process()' call may be done
before 'ubi_thread()' went seep, but after it checked
'ubi->thread_enabled'.

If a volume paranoid check fails, do not return an error
code to the caller, but just print error messages and go
forward. The primary reason for this is that it is difficult
to recover and cancel the operation at that stage.

When paranoid checs are enabled, the 'io_paral' test from the
'mtd-utils' package fails. The symptoms are:
UBI error: paranoid_check_all_ff: flash region at PEB 3973:512, length 15872 does not contain all 0xFF bytes
UBI error: paranoid_check_all_ff: paranoid check failed for PEB 3973
UBI: hex dump of the 512-16384 region
It turned out to be a bug in the checking function. Suppose there
are 2 tasks - A and B. Task A is the wear-levelling working
('wear_leveling_worker()'). It is reading the VID header to find
which LEB this PEB belongs to. Say, task A is reading header
of PEB X. Suppose PEB X is unmapped, and has no VID header.
Task B is trying to write to PEB X.
Task A: in 'ubi_io_read_vid_hdr()': reads the VID header from PEB X.
The read data contain all 0xFF bytes.
Task B: writes VID header and some data to PEB X
Task A: assumes PEB X is empty, calls 'paranoid_check_all_ff()', which
fails.
The solution for this problem is to make 'paranoid_check_all_ff()'
re-read the VID header, re-check it, and only if it is not there,
check the rest. This now implemented by the 'paranoid_check_empty()'
function.

The @mult_mutex does not serve any purpose. We already have
@volumes_mutex and it is enough. The @volume mutex is pushed
down to the 'ubi_rename_volumes()', because we want first
to open all volumes in the exclusive mode, and then lock the
mutex, just like all other ioctl's (remove, re-size, etc) do.

There is a logic error in "whole chip erase" for the m25p80 family. If
the whole device is successfully erased, erase_chip() will return 0, and
the code will fall through to the "else" clause, and do sector-by-sector
erase in addition to the whole-chip erase. This patch corrects that.
Also, the MAX_READY_WAIT_COUNT is insufficient for an m25p16 connected
to a 400 MHz powerpc. Increasing it allows me to successfully program
the device on my board.

MTD has got sysfs support in 2.6.30-rc1. But subpage size is not
exposed there - do this.
UBI utilities badly need this parameter. At the moment there is
no way to get subpage size - ioctls do not return it. And we
just got sysfs support, so we can easilly extend it with this
additional parameter.
This can be merged late in the development cycle because:
1. sysfs support has been just added - there are no users for
it so far, even.
2. UBI utilities really need this parameter, and it is better
not to delay this.

The NAND flash on the TQM8548_BE modules requires a short delay after
running the UPM pattern. The TQM8548_BE requires a further short delay
after writing out a buffer. Normally the R/B pin should be checked, but
it's not connected on the TQM8548_BE. The existing driver uses similar
fixed delay points. To manage these extra delays in a more general way,
I introduced the "fsl,ump-wait-flags" property allowing the board-
specific driver to specify various types of extra delay.

Update driver model support in the MTD framework, so it fits
better into the current udev-based hotplug framework:
- Each mtd_info now has a device node. MTD drivers should set
the dev.parent field to point to the physical device, before
setting up partitions or otherwise declaring MTDs.
- Those device nodes always map to /sys/class/mtdX device nodes,
which no longer depend on MTD_CHARDEV.
- Those mtdX sysfs nodes have a "starter set" of attributes;
it's not yet sufficient to replace /proc/mtd.
- Enabling MTD_CHARDEV provides /sys/class/mtdXro/ nodes and the
/sys/class/mtd*/dev attributes (for udev, mdev, etc).
- Include a MODULE_ALIAS_CHARDEV_MAJOR macro. It'll work with
udev creating the /dev/mtd* nodes, not just a static rootfs.
So the sysfs structure is pretty much what you'd expect, except
that readonly chardev nodes are a bit quirky.

A pointer to plat_nand_probe is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.
An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
from the struct platform_driver.

- .remove = __exit_p(pxa2xx_flash_remove),

which leads to the following build error:

This is not the only instance of it in this patch - all __exit_p's
