Brian Norris ef32476f26 This pull request contains the following core changes:
* addition of on-ecc support to Micron driver
 * addition of helpers to help drivers choose most appropriate ECC
   settings
 * deletion of dead-code (cached programming and ->errstat() hook)
 * make sure drivers that do not support the SET/GET FEATURES command
   return ENOTSUPP use a dummy ->set/get_features implementation
   returning -ENOTSUPP (required for Micron on-die ECC)
 * change the semantic of ecc->write_page() for drivers setting the
   NAND_ECC_CUSTOM_PAGE_ACCESS flag
 * support exiting 'GET STATUS' command in default ->cmdfunc()
   implementations
 * change the prototype of ->setup_data_interface()
 
 A bunch of driver related changes:
 
 * various cleanup, fixes and improvements of the MTK driver
 * OMAP DT bindings fixes
 * support for ->setup_data_interface() in the fsmc driver
 * support for imx7 in the gpmi driver
 * finalization of the denali driver rework (thanks to Masahiro for the
   work he's done on this driver)
 * fix "bitflips in erased pages" handling in the ifc driver
 * addition of PM ops and dynamic timing configuration to the atmel
   driver
 
 And as usual we also have a few minor cleanup/fixes/improvements
 patches across the subsystem.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
