This commit fixes NOR flash recovery issues observed with Spansion
S29GL512N NOR.
When NOR erases, it first fills PEBs with zeroes, then sets all bytes
to 0xFF. Filling with zeroes starts from the end of the PEB. And when
power is cut, this results in PEBs containing correct EC and VID headers
but corrupted with zeros at the end. This confuses UBI and it mistakinly
accepts these PEBs and associate them with LEBs.
Fis this issue by zeroing EC and VID magics before erasing PEBs, to
make UBI later refuse zem.

Move the image seq. number handling from I/O level to the scanning
lever, where it really belongs to. Move the @image_seq_set variable
to the @struct ubi_scan_info structure, which exists only during
scanning.

An image sequence number is added to the UBI erase-counter header
to be able determine if the root file system contains a mixture
of old and new images (because the flashing failed to complete).
A change to nolo is also needed for this to take effect.

The 'paranoid_check_empty()' is bogus because, which is easilly
seen on NOR flash, which has long erase cycles, and which may
easilly end-up with half-erased eraseblocks. In this case the
paranoid check fails. I is just wrong to assume that PEBs which
do not have EC headers always contain all 0xFF. Such assumption
should not be made on the I/O level, which is quite low.
Thus, just kill the check.

This patch adds code which makes sure eraseblocks contain all 0xFF
bytes before starting using them. The verification is done only when
debugging checks are enabled.

Commit 537a1bf059 (fbdev: add mutex for
fb_mmap locking) introduces a ->mm_lock mutex for protecting smem
assignments. Unfortunately in the case of sm501fb these happen quite
early in the initialization code, well before the mutex_init() that takes
place in register_framebuffer(), leading to:
Badness at kernel/mutex.c:207
Pid : 1, Comm: swapper
CPU : 0 Not tainted (2.6.31-rc1-00284-g529ba0d-dirty #2273)
PC is at __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x72/0x1bc
PR is at __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x66/0x1bc
...
matroxfb appears to have the same issue and has solved it with an early
mutex_init(), so we do the same for sm501fb.

The PCM rates bit field may have been changed by the codec open callback.
In that case, we need to reset rate_min and rate_max. So, simply call
snd_pcm_lib_hw_rates() again after the codec open callback.

Check whether formats and rates don't result in zero due to the
restriction of SPDIF sharing. If any of them can be zero, disable
the SPDIF sharing mode instead. Otherwise it will lead to a PCM
configuration error.

Block layer used to merge requests and bios with different failfast
settings. This caused regular IOs to fail prematurely when they were
merged into failfast requests for readahead.
Niel Lambrechts could trigger the problem semi-reliably on ext4 when
resuming from STR. ext4 uses readahead when reading inodes and
combined with the deterministic extra SATA PHY exception cycle during
resume on the specific configuration, non-readahead inode read would
fail causing ext4 errors. Please read the following thread for
details.
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/5/23/21
This patch makes block layer reject merging if the failfast settings
don't match. This is correct but likely to lower IO performance by
preventing regular IOs from mingling into surrounding readahead
requests. Changes to allow such mixed merges and handle errors
correctly will be added later.

When doing an unexpected shutdown like kexec the cciss
firmware might still have some commands in flight, which
it is trying to complete.
The driver is doing it's best on resetting the HBA,
but sadly there's a firmware issue causing the firmware
_not_ to abort or drop old commands.
So the firmware will send us commands which we haven't
accounted for, causing the driver to panic.
With this patch we're just ignoring these commands as
there is nothing we could be doing with them anyway.
