Many drivers check whether the partition is R/O and return -EROFS if yes.
Let's stop having duplicated checks and move them to the API functions
instead.
And again a bit of noise - deleted few too sparse newlines, sorry.

We already verify that offset and length are within the MTD device size
in the MTD API functions. Let's remove the duplicated checks in drivers.
This patch only affects the following API's:
'mtd_erase()'
'mtd_point()'
'mtd_unpoint()'
'mtd_get_unmapped_area()'
'mtd_read()'
'mtd_write()'
'mtd_panic_write()'
'mtd_lock()'
'mtd_unlock()'
'mtd_is_locked()'
'mtd_block_isbad()'
'mtd_block_markbad()'
This patch adds a bit of noise by removing too sparse empty lines, but this is
not too bad.

Add verification of the offset and length to MTD API functions and verify that
MTD device offset and length are within MTD device size.
The modified API functions are:
'mtd_erase()'
'mtd_point()'
'mtd_unpoint()'
'mtd_get_unmapped_area()'
'mtd_read()'
'mtd_write()'
'mtd_panic_write()'
'mtd_lock()'
'mtd_unlock()'
'mtd_is_locked()'
'mtd_block_isbad()'
'mtd_block_markbad()'
This patch also uninlines these functions and exports in mtdcore.c because they
are not performance-critical and do not have to be inlined.

The 'mtd_unpoint()' API function should be able to return an error code because
it may fail if you specify incorrect offset. This patch changes this MTD API
function and amends all the drivers correspondingly.
Also return '-EOPNOTSUPP' from 'mtd_unpoint()' when the '->unpoint()' method is
undefined. We do not really need this currently, but this just makes
sense to be consistent with 'mtd_point()'.

Currently, the flash-based BBT implementation writes bad block data only
to its flash-based table and not to the OOB marker area. Then, as new bad
blocks are marked over time, the OOB markers become incomplete and the
flash-based table becomes the only source of current bad block
information. This becomes an obvious problem when, for example:
* bootloader cannot read the flash-based BBT format
* BBT is corrupted and the flash must be rescanned for bad
blocks; we want to remember bad blocks that were marked from Linux
So to keep the bad block markers in sync with the flash-based BBT, this
patch changes the default so that we write bad block markers to the proper
OOB area on each block in addition to flash-based BBT. Comments are
updated, expanded, and/or relocated as necessary.
The new flash-based BBT procedure for marking bad blocks:
(1) erase the affected block, to allow OOB marker to be written cleanly
(2) update in-memory BBT
(3) write bad block marker to OOB area of affected block
(4) update flash-based BBT
Note that we retain the first error encountered in (3) or (4), finish the
procedures, and dump the error in the end.
This should handle power cuts gracefully enough. (1) and (2) are mostly
harmless (note that (1) will not erase an already-recognized bad block).
The OOB and BBT may be "out of sync" if we experience power loss bewteen
(3) and (4), but we can reasonably expect that on next boot, subsequent
I/O operations will discover that the block should be marked bad again,
thus re-syncing the OOB and BBT.
Note that this is a change from the previous default flash-based BBT
behavior. If your system cannot support writing bad block markers to OOB,
use the new NAND_BBT_NO_OOB_BBM option (in combination with
NAND_BBT_USE_FLASH and NAND_BBT_NO_OOB).

We do not need to invoke 'mtd_can_have_bb()' before invoking
'mtd_block_isbad()' because the latter already handles the case when the MTD
device does not support bad blocks.

The main 'mtd_block_markbad()' function returns -EOPNOTSUPP if the
'->block_markbad' method is undefined, and mtdconcat should do the same.
Fix this by simply removing the 'mtd_can_have_bb()' because it is not
really necessary. It could be treated as an optimization, but this function is
expected to be used so rarely that it does not matter.

The writebufsize concept was introduce by commit
"0e4ca7e mtd: add writebufsize field to mtd_info struct" and it represents
the maximum amount of data the device writes to the media at a time. This is
an important parameter for UBIFS which is used during recovery and which
basically defines how big a corruption caused by a power cut can be.
Set writebufsize to the flash page size because it is the maximum amount of

This patch renames all MTD functions by adding a "_" prefix:
mtd->erase -> mtd->_erase
mtd->read_oob -> mtd->_read_oob
...
The reason is that we are re-working the MTD API and from now on it is
an error to use MTD function pointers directly - we have a corresponding
API call for every pointer. By adding a leading "_" we achieve the following:
1. Make sure we convert every direct pointer users
2. A leading "_" suggests that this interface is internal and it becomes
less likely that people will use them directly
3. Make sure all the out-of-tree modules stop compiling and the owners
spot the big API change and amend them.

This patch adds a driver for the M-Sys / Sandisk diskonchip G4 nand flash found
in various smartphones and PDAs, among them the Palm Treo680, HTC Prophet and
Wizard, Toshiba Portege G900, Asus P526, and O2 XDA Zinc. It was tested on the
Treo 680, but should work generically.
Since v3, this patch adds power management functions, a scan of the factory bad
block table during initialization, several fixes, and more extensive testing.
Also, the platform data header file, which only contained partitioning
information, was removed. Command-line partitioning can be used, at least until
an mtd parser is written for the saftl format with which these chips are
shipped.
