In many places in drivers we verify for the zero length, but this is very
inconsistent across drivers. This is obviously the right thing to do, though.
This patch moves the check to the MTD API functions instead and removes a lot
of duplication.

The MTD API function now zero the 'retlen' parameter before calling
the driver's method — do not do this again in drivers. This removes
duplicated '*retlen = 0' assignent from the following methods:

    'mtd_point()'
    'mtd_read()'
    'mtd_write()'
    'mtd_writev()'
    'mtd_panic_write()'

<title>mtd: do not duplicate length and offset checks in drivers</title>

<content type='text'>
We already verify that offset and length are within the MTD device size
in the MTD API functions. Let's remove the duplicated checks in drivers.
This patch only affects the following API's:

'mtd_erase()'
'mtd_point()'
'mtd_unpoint()'
'mtd_get_unmapped_area()'
'mtd_read()'
'mtd_write()'
'mtd_panic_write()'
'mtd_lock()'
'mtd_unlock()'
'mtd_is_locked()'
'mtd_block_isbad()'
'mtd_block_markbad()'

This patch adds a bit of noise by removing too sparse empty lines, but this is
not too bad.

<title>mtd: add leading underscore to all mtd functions</title>

This patch renames all MTD functions by adding a "_" prefix:

mtd-&gt;erase -&gt; mtd-&gt;_erase
mtd-&gt;read_oob -&gt; mtd-&gt;_read_oob
...

The reason is that we are re-working the MTD API and from now on it is
an error to use MTD function pointers directly - we have a corresponding
API call for every pointer. By adding a leading "_" we achieve the following:

1. Make sure we convert every direct pointer users
2. A leading "_" suggests that this interface is internal and it becomes
   less likely that people will use them directly
3. Make sure all the out-of-tree modules stop compiling and the owners
   spot the big API change and amend them.

<title>mtd: cfi: Allow per-mapping CFI device endianness</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch allows each CFI device map to use its own endianness. The
globally defined CFI endianness (CONFIG_MTD_CFI_NOSWAP,
CONFIG_MTD_CFI_BE_BYTE_SWAP or CONFIG_MTD_CFI_LE_BYTE_SWAP) becomes the
default value which can be overridden by a driver for a particular device.

<title>mtd: fix hang-up in cfi erase and read contention</title>

cfi erase command hangs up when erase and read contention occurs.
If read runs at the same address as erase operation, read issues
Erase-Suspend via get_chip() and the erase goes into sleep in wait queue.
But in this case, read operation exits by time-out without waking it up.

I think the other variants (0001, 0020 and lpddr) have the same problem too.
Tested and verified the patch only on CFI-0002 flash, though.

possible flash chip interleaving. Wrong writebufsize initialization
caused UBIFS recovery issues resulting in unmountable UBIFS file
