This patchs adds a way for user space programs to find out whether a
flash sector is locked. An optional driver method in the mtd_info struct
provides the information.

This breaks the dilnetpc map driver, but it could be fixed not to use
that option. We want to simplify the partition handling, and this is a
step towards that.
Remove superfluous 'index' field from private struct mtd_part too, while
we're at it.

In the existing implementation, ecc_stats fields are incremented only by
one, regardless of master mtd errors number. For example, if there are N
errors were corrected by ECC, partition ecc_stats.corrected will be
incremented by one.
This commit changes simple increment to sum of old value and parent mtd
error count.

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.

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

MTDs are well suited for logging critical data and the mtdoops driver
allows kernel panics/oops to be written to flash in a blackbox flight
recorder fashion allowing better debugging and analysis of crashes.
Any kernel oops in user context can be easily handled since the kernel
continues as normal and any queued mtd writes are scheduled. Any kernel
oops in interrupt context results in a panic and the delayed writes will
not be scheduled however. The existing mtd->write function cannot be
called in interrupt context so these messages can never be written to
flash.
This patch adds a panic_write function pointer that drivers can
optionally implement which can be called in interrupt context. It is
only intended to be called when its known the kernel is about to panic
and we need to write to succeed. Since the kernel is not going to be
running for much longer, this function can break locks and delay to
ensure the write succeeds (but not sleep).
