Vitaly Wool 7014568bad [MTD] [NAND] remove len/ooblen confusion.
As was discussed between Ricard Wanderlöf, David Woodhouse, Artem 
Bityutskiy and me, the current API for reading/writing OOB is confusing. 

The thing that introduces confusion is the need to specify ops.len 
together with ops.ooblen for reads/writes that concern only OOB not data 
area. So, ops.len is overloaded: when ops.datbuf != NULL it serves to 
specify the length of the data read, and when ops.datbuf == NULL, it 
serves to specify the full OOB read length.

The patch inlined below is the slightly updated version of the previous 
patch serving the same purpose, but with the new Artem's comments taken 
into account.

Artem, BTW, thanks a lot for your valuable input!

Thomas Gleixner 8593fbc68b [MTD] Rework the out of band handling completely
Hopefully the last iteration on this!

The handling of out of band data on NAND was accompanied by tons of fruitless
discussions and halfarsed patches to make it work for a particular
problem. Sufficiently annoyed by I all those "I know it better" mails and the
resonable amount of discarded "it solves my problem" patches, I finally decided
to go for the big rework. After removing the _ecc variants of mtd read/write
functions the solution to satisfy the various requirements was to refactor the
read/write _oob functions in mtd.

The major change is that read/write_oob now takes a pointer to an operation
descriptor structure "struct mtd_oob_ops".instead of having a function with at
least seven arguments.

read/write_oob which should probably renamed to a more descriptive name, can do
the following tasks:

- read/write out of band data
- read/write data content and out of band data
- read/write raw data content and out of band data (ecc disabled)

struct mtd_oob_ops has a mode field, which determines the oob handling mode.

Aside of the MTD_OOB_RAW mode, which is intended to be especially for
diagnostic purposes and some internal functions e.g. bad block table creation,
the other two modes are for mtd clients:

MTD_OOB_PLACE puts/gets the given oob data exactly to/from the place which is
described by the ooboffs and ooblen fields of the mtd_oob_ops strcuture. It's
up to the caller to make sure that the byte positions are not used by the ECC
placement algorithms.

MTD_OOB_AUTO puts/gets the given oob data automaticaly to/from the places in
the out of band area which are described by the oobfree tuples in the ecclayout
data structre which is associated to the devicee.

The decision whether data plus oob or oob only handling is done depends on the
setting of the datbuf member of the data structure. When datbuf == NULL then
the internal read/write_oob functions are selected, otherwise the read/write
data routines are invoked.

Tested on a few platforms with all variants. Please be aware of possible
regressions for your particular device / application scenario

Disclaimer: Any whining will be ignored from those who just contributed "hot
air blurb" and never sat down to tackle the underlying problem of the mess in
the NAND driver grown over time and the big chunk of work to fix up the
existing users. The problem was not the holiness of the existing MTD
interfaces. The problems was the lack of time to go for the big overhaul. It's
easy to add more mess to the existing one, but it takes alot of effort to go
for a real solution.

Improvements and bugfixes are welcome!

David Woodhouse 2f785402f3 [JFFS2] Reduce visibility of raw_node_ref to upper layers of JFFS2 code.
As the first step towards eliminating the ref->next_phys member and saving
memory by using an _array_ of struct jffs2_raw_node_ref per eraseblock,
stop the write functions from allocating their own refs; have them just
_reserve_ the appropriate number instead. Then jffs2_link_node_ref() can
just fill them in.

Use a linked list of pre-allocated refs in the superblock, for now. Once
we switch to an array, it'll just be a case of extending that array.

Ferenc Havasi e631ddba58 [JFFS2] Add erase block summary support (mount time improvement)
The goal of summary is to speed up the mount time. Erase block summary (EBS)
stores summary information at the end of every (closed) erase block. It is
no longer necessary to scan all nodes separetly (and read all pages of them)
just read this "small" summary, where every information is stored which is
needed at mount time.

This summary information is stored in a JFFS2_FEATURE_RWCOMPAT_DELETE. During
the mount process if there is no summary info the orignal scan process will
be executed. EBS works with NAND and NOR flashes, too.

There is a user space tool called sumtool to generate this summary
information for a JFFS2 image.

Tim Schmielau 4e57b68178 [PATCH] fix missing includes
I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
this disentangling (patch to follow later).
However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.

In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
patch.  This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other.  So if any
hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it.  My scripts
will pick it up again in the next round.

Since the DataFlash chip will automatically erase pages when writing,

cleanmarker_size = 0

DataFlash page-sizes are not a power of two (they're multiples of 528
bytes).  The SECTOR_ADDR macro (added in the previous core patch) is

DataFlash page-sizes are not a power of two (they're multiples of 528

as a bitmask.  A new macro (SECTOR_ADDR) was defined to calculate these
sector addresses. For non-DataFlash devices, the original (faster)
bitmask operation is still used.

In scan.c, the EMPTY_SCAN_SIZE was a constant of 1024.
Since this could be larger than the sector size of the DataFlash, this
is now basically set to MIN(sector_size, 1024).
