The patch fixes a bug when converting dev to mtd_info by using the
drvdata of the dev, the previous code used
container_of(dev, struct mtd_info, dev), but won't work for the mtdXro
devices as they created without being contained inside mtd_info structure.

Add optional callback to allow platform to initialize partitions.
Static partitions on a nand device could vary depending on the size of the
device. This patch allows an optional platform callback to be used to
setup this partition information at runtime.
Scan order is:
1) chip.part_probe_types
2) chip.set_parts
3) chip.partitions
4) full mtd device (fallback for no partitions)
Some of the existing nand drivers could possibly be replaced by the
plat_nand driver by using this patch. These include autcpu12.c and
ts7250.c drivers.

This patch adds (write|read)_buf callbacks to plat_nand.
The NAND on the TS-7800 provisioned by the FPGA allows readw() and
readl() to be used which gives a 2.5x speed up. To be able to use this
from the plat_nand driver a hook for read_buf (and also write_buf whilst
we are in there) need to be made available. This patch adds the hook.

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.

device/volume info in notifiers]

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.

DaVinci-specific driver to the <linux/mtd/partitions.h> header.
Use those to eliminate #ifdefs in two drivers which had their own
definitions of mtd_has_partitions().
Quite a lot of other MTD drivers could benefit from using use one or both
of these to remove #ifdeffery. Maybe some Janitors would like to help.

MTD internal API presently uses 32-bit values to represent
device size. This patch updates them to 64-bits but leaves
the external API unchanged. Extending the external API
is a separate issue for several reasons. First, no one
needs it at the moment. Secondly, whether the implementation
is done with IOCTLs, sysfs or both is still debated. Thirdly
external API changes require the internal API to be accepted
first.
Note that although the MTD API will be able to support 64-bit
device sizes, existing drivers do not and are not required
to do so, although NAND base has been updated.
In general, changing from 32-bit to 64-bit values cause little
or no changes to the majority of the code with the following
exceptions:
- printk message formats
- division and modulus of 64-bit values
- NAND base support
- 32-bit local variables used by mtdpart and mtdconcat
- naughtily assuming one structure maps to another
in MEMERASE ioctl

For "unlock" cycles to 16bit devices in 8bit compatibility mode we need
to use the byte addresses 0xaaa and 0x555. These effectively match
the word address 0x555 and 0x2aa, except the latter has its low bit set.
Most chips don't care about the value of the 'A-1' pin in x8 mode,
but some -- like the ST M29W320D -- do. So we need to be careful to
set it where appropriate.
cfi_send_gen_cmd is only ever passed addresses where the low byte
is 0x00, 0x55 or 0xaa. Of those, only addresses ending 0xaa are
affected by this patch, by masking in the extra low bit when the device
is known to be in compatibility mode.
[dwmw2: Do it only when (cmd_ofs & 0xff) == 0xaa]
v4: Fix stupid typo in cfi_build_cmd_addr that failed to compile
I'm writing this patch way to late at night.
v3: Bring all of the work back into cfi_build_cmd_addr
including calling of map_bankwidth(map) and cfi_interleave(cfi)
So every caller doesn't need to.
v2: Only modified the address if we our device_type is larger than our
bus width.

Timeouts are currently given by the typical operation time times 8.
It works in the general well-behaved case but not when an erase block is
failing. For erase operations, it seems that a failing erase block will
keep the device state machine in erasing state until the vendor
specified maximum timeout period has passed. By this time the driver
would have long since timed out, left erasing state and attempted
further operations which all fail. This patch implements timeouts using
values from the CFI Query structure when available.
The patch also sets a longer timeout for locking operations. The current
value used for locking/unlocking given by 1000000/HZ microseconds is too
short for devices like J3 and J5 Strataflash which have a typical clear
lock-bits time of 0.5 seconds.

There are some CFI chips which require non standard procedures to get
into QRY mode. The possible way to support them would be trying
different modes till QRY will be read. This patch introduce two new
functions qry_mode_on qry_mode_off. qry_mode_on tries different commands
in order switch chip into QRY mode.
So if we have one more "odd" chip - we just could add several lines to
qry_mode_on. Also using these functions remove unnecessary code
duplicaton in porbe procedure.
Currently there are two "odd" cases
1. Some old intel chips which require 0xFF before 0x98
2. ST M29DW chip which requires 0x98 to be sent at 0x555 (according to
CFI should be 0x55)
This patch is partialy based on the patch from Uwe
(see "[PATCH 2/4] [RFC][MTD] cfi_probe: remove Intel chip workaround"

subpage-read functionality reads the only whose ECC regions which include
requested data when original code reads whole page.
This significantly improves performance in many cases.

No subpage reads: 5.75 seconds
Subpage read patch: 2.42 seconds
Open/stat time for files on JFFS2 volume:
No subpage read 0m 5.36s
