cfi_amdstd_sync() and cfi_staa_sync() call schedule() without changing task's
state appropriately.
In case of e.g. chip->state == FL_ERASING, cfi_*_sync() will be busy-looping
either redundantly for a fixed interval of time (for SCHED_NORMAL tasks) or
possibly endlessly (for RT tasks and UP).

THe CFI driver in 2.6.24 kernel is broken. Not so intensive read/write
operations cause incomplete writes which lead to kernel panics in JFFS2.
We investigated the issue - it is caused by bug in FL_SHUTDOWN parsing code.
Sometimes chip returns -EIO as if it is in FL_SHUTDOWN state when it should
wait in FL_PONT (error in order of conditions).
The following patch fixes the bug in state parsing code of CFI. Also I've
added comments to notify developers if they want to add new case in future.

While looping for mtd[i]s, we should stop at the mtd[i] == NULL.
This patch also removes unnecessary "if (info)" checks:
suspend/resume/shutdown ops are executed only if probe() is succeeded, so info
is guaranteed to be !NULL.

This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.
Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
<dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

Implements kernel command line partitioning support for the CS5535/CS5536 chipsets driver.
For that the following is done:
* cs553x_cleanup(): try the cleanup for all chip selects to not leak memory
* Assign a unique name for each chip select to be separately addressable in the command line mtd-id portion(s)
* Use the already defined PIN_OPT_IDE constant where appropriate for readability
* Include command line partitioning support when CONFIG_MTD_PARTS is set

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).

neither MAINTAINERS nor the module source makes this fact clear. And while
