<title>[MTD] update internal API to support 64-bit device size</title>

<content type='text'>
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

Once upon a time, the MTD repository was using CVS.

This patch therefore removes all usages of the no longer updated CVS
keywords from the MTD code.

This also includes code that printed them to the user.

cfi_amdstd_sync() and cfi_staa_sync() call schedule() without changing task's
state appropriately.

In case of e.g.  chip-&gt;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 files cfi_cmdset_0002.c and cfi_cmdset_0020.c do not initialize their
wait queues like is done in cfi_cmdset_0001.c.  This causes an oops when
the wait queue is accessed.  I have copied the code from cfi_cmdset_0001.c
that is pertinent to initialization of the wait queue.

The cfi_staa_write_buffers() uses mtd-&gt;eccsize but means mtd-&gt;writesize.
BTW, mtd-eccsize is broken and is not initialized, which means the code
fixed by this patch is broken/unused anyway.

o Add a flag MTD_BIT_WRITEABLE for devices that allow single bits to be
  cleared.
o Replace MTD_PROGRAM_REGIONS with a cleared MTD_BIT_WRITEABLE flag for
  STMicro and Intel Sibley flashes with internal ECC.  Those flashes
  disallow clearing of single bits, unlike regular NOR flashes, so the
  new flag models their behaviour better.
o Remove MTD_ECC.  After the STMicro/Sibley merge, this flag is only set
  and never checked.

In 2002, STMicro started producing NOR flashes with internal ECC protection
for small blocks (8 or 16 bytes).  Support for those flashes was added by me.
In 2005, Intel Sibley flashes copied this strategy and Nico added support for
those.  Merge the code for both.
