Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-"
and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules
to match.
A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code
that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many
users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel.
Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible
modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially
making things safer with no real cost.
Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which
filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf
with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe,
well understood work-arounds to known problematic software.
This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem
name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading
would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such
cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module
autofs4.
This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request
module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and
people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case
the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module.
After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any
particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond
making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem
module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module()
without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem
module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep.
Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a
filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user
namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT,
which most filesystems do not set today.

o Add basic support for the Mediatek/Ralink Wireless SoC family.
o The Qualcomm Atheros platform is extended by support for the new
QCA955X SoC series as well as a bunch of patches that get the code
ready for OF support.
o Lantiq and BCM47XX platform have a few improvements and bug fixes.
o MIPS has sent a few patches that get the kernel ready for the
upcoming microMIPS support.
o The rest of the series is made up of small bug fixes and cleanups
that relate to various parts of the MIPS code. The biggy in there is
a whitespace cleanup. After I was sent another set of whitespace
cleanup patches I decided it was the time to clean the whitespace
"issues" for once and and that touches many files below arch/mips/.

Before this patch, we assume the whole ROM code are mapping to memory. So
it is wrong if the lookup table offset is 0.
After this patch, we can map only the lookup table of ROM code to memory
intead of the whole ROM code (about 1M). In this case, one lookup table
offset can be 0.

We do the check based on the following two facts:
[1] The mx23/mx28 can only support 20-bits ECC, while the mx6
can supports 40-bits ECC.
[2] The mx23/mx28 can only support the GF13, while the mx6
can supports GF13 and GF14.

The GF13 can be only used in the following case:
The ECC data chunk is less then 1K bytes.
In mx23/mx28, the ecc data chunk is 512 bytes. So it is okay.
But in mx6q, we begin to use some large nand chip whose ecc
data chunk maybe 1K bytes long. So when the data chunk is 1K bytes,
we have to use the GF14.
This patch sets the Golois Field bit when the GF14 is needed.

The panic_nand_wait() expects the timeo in ms and not in jiffies.
But in nand_wait(), the timeo for panic_nand_wait() is assigned with
wrong value(jiffies + some delay). The timeo should be set like the
panic_nand_write() does.
This patch passes timeo in ms to panic_nand_wait().
And this patch also passes timeo in jiffies(converted by msecs_to_jiffies)
to time_before() which makes the code more readable.

Currently cfi_cmdset_0002.c does not support PPB locking of sectors. This
patch adds support for this locking/unlocking mechanism. It is needed on
some platforms, since newer U-Boot versions do support this PPB locking
and protect for example their environment sector(s) this way.
This PPB locking/unlocking will be enabled for all devices supported by
cfi_cmdset_0002 reporting 8 in the CFI word 0x49 (Sector Protect/Unprotect
scheme).
Please note that PPB locking does support sector-by-sector locking. But
the whole chip can only be unlocked together. So unlocking one sector
will automatically unlock all sectors of this device. Because of this
chip limitation, the PPB unlocking function saves the current locking
status of all sectors before unlocking the whole device. After unlocking
the saved locking status is re-configured. This way only the addressed
sectors will be unlocked.
To selectively enable this advanced sector protection mechanism, the
device-tree property "use-advanced-sector-protection" has been created.
To enable support for this locking this property needs to be present in the
flash DT node. E.g.:
nor_flash@0,0 {
compatible = "amd,s29gl256n", "cfi-flash";
bank-width = <2>;
use-advanced-sector-protection;
...
Tested with Spansion S29GL512S10THI and Micron JS28F512M29EWx flash

Since the IFC device registers are annotated big endian in
fsl_ifc.h, the accessor annotations now match, resulting in the
pleasant side-effect of this patch silencing sparse endian

This allows to put the filesystem at a defined address in ROM allowing
to save more precious RAM.
I think it's safe to default to ROM because the intention of using the
uclinux map is to use a romfs and so mtd-ram doesn't give you anything
that mtd-rom doesn't.
