A comment in the kernel doc of the mtd_oob_ops structure tells that it
is not possible to write more than one page with OOB. This is actually
true for only a few MTD devices like 'onenand' but it is definitely not
a general limitation. While this would benefit to be handled elsewhere
either by the MTD layer or by the limited drivers, let's update this
comment to reflect the reality.

MTD users are no longer checking erase_info->state to determine if the
erase operation failed or succeeded. Moreover, mtd_erase_callback() is
now a NOP.
We can safely get rid of all mtd_erase_callback() calls and all
erase_info->state assignments. While at it, get rid of the
erase_info->state field, all MTD_ERASE_XXX definitions and the
mtd_erase_callback() function.

Changes in v2:
- Address a few coding style issues (reported by Miquel)
- Remove comments that are no longer valid (reported by Miquel)
->fail_addr and ->addr can be updated no matter the result of
parent->_erase(), we just need to remove the code doing the same thing
in mtd_erase_callback() to avoid adjusting those fields twice.
Note that this can be done because all MTD users have been converted to
not pass an erase_info->callback() and are thus only taking the
->addr_fail and ->addr fields into account after part_erase() has
returned.
While we're at it, get rid of the erase_info->mtd field which was only
needed to let mtd_erase_callback() get the partition device back.

None of the mtd->_erase() implementations work in an asynchronous manner,
so let's simplify MTD users that call mtd_erase(). All they need to do
is check the value returned by mtd_erase() and assume that != 0 means
failure.

There's currently nothing forcing alignment of einfo->addr and
einfo->len on mtd->erasesize. Since we don't know if automatically
aligning those field in mtd_erase() will hurt some drivers, we add an
helper function to let drivers that need such an alignment explicitly
ask for it.

Several MTD devices are using debugfs entries created in the root.
This commit provides the means for a standardized subtree, creating
one "mtd" entry at root, and one entry per device inside it, named
after the device.
The tree is registered in add_mtd_device, and released in
del_mtd_device.
Devices docg3, mtdswap and nandsim were updated to use this subtree
instead of custom ones, and their entries were prefixed with the
drivers' names.

MTD already allocates backing_dev_info dynamically. Convert it to use
generic infrastructure for this including proper refcounting. We drop
mtd->backing_dev_info as its only use was to pass mtd_bdi pointer from
one file into another and if we wanted to keep that in a clean way, we'd
have to make mtd hold and drop bdi reference as needed which seems
pointless for passing one global pointer...

MLC and TLC NAND devices are using NAND cells exposing more than one bit,
but instead of attaching all the bits in a given cell to a single NAND
page, each bit is usually attached to a different page. This concept is
called 'page pairing', and has significant impacts on the flash storage
usage.
The main problem showed by these devices is that interrupting a page
program operation may not only corrupt the page we are programming
but also the page it is paired with, hence the need to expose to MTD
users the pairing scheme information.
The pairing APIs allows one to query pairing information attached to a
given page (here called wunit), or the other way around (the wunit
pointed by pairing information).
It also provides several helpers to help the conversion between absolute
offsets and wunits, and query the number of pairing groups.

Now that all MTD drivers have moved to the mtd_ooblayout_ops model we can

ECC layout definitions are currently exposed using the nand_ecclayout
struct which embeds oobfree and eccpos arrays with predefined size.
This approach was acceptable when NAND chips were providing relatively
small OOB regions, but MLC and TLC now provide OOB regions of several
hundreds of bytes, which implies a non negligible overhead for everybody
even those who only need to support legacy NANDs.
Create an mtd_ooblayout_ops interface providing the same functionality
(expose the ECC and oobfree layout) without the need for this huge
structure.
The mtd->ecclayout is now deprecated and should be replaced by the
equivalent mtd_ooblayout_ops. In the meantime we provide a wrapper around
the ->ecclayout field to ease migration to this new model.

Since "BDI: Provide backing device capability information [try #3]" the
backing_dev_info structure also provides flags for the kind of mmap
operation available in a nommu environment, which is entirely unrelated
to it's original purpose.
Introduce a new nommu-only file operation to provide this information to
the nommu mmap code instead. Splitting this from the backing_dev_info
structure allows to remove lots of backing_dev_info instance that aren't
otherwise needed, and entirely gets rid of the concept of providing a
backing_dev_info for a character device. It also removes the need for
the mtd_inodefs filesystem.
