commit 778d226a1462572b51d6777cdb1d611543410cb4 upstream.

This patch fixes two memory errors:

1. During a probe failure (in mtd_device_parse_register?) the command
   buffer would not be freed.

2. The command buffer's size is determined based on the 'fast_read'
   boolean, but the assignment of fast_read is made after this
   allocation. Thus, the buffer may be allocated "too small".

To fix the first, just switch to the devres version of kzalloc.

To fix the second, increase MAX_CMD_SIZE unconditionally. It's not worth
saving a byte to fiddle around with the conditions here.

This problem was reported by Yuhang Wang a while back.

commit b54f47c8bcfc5f766bf13ec31bd7dd1d4726d33b upstream.

Using UBI on m25p80 can give messages like:

    UBI error: io_init: bad write buffer size 0 for 1 min. I/O unit

We need to initialize writebufsize; I think "page_size" is the correct
"bufsize", although I'm not sure. Comments?

commit fcc44a07dae0af16e84e93425fc8afe642ddc603 upstream.

The writebufsize concept was introduce by commit
"0e4ca7e mtd: add writebufsize field to mtd_info struct" and it represents
the maximum amount of data the device writes to the media at a time. This is
an important parameter for UBIFS which is used during recovery and which
basically defines how big a corruption caused by a power cut can be.

Set writebufsize to 4 because this drivers writes at max 4 bytes at a time.

<title>mtd: clean up usage of MTD_DOCPROBE_ADDRESS</title>

Depending on whether MTD_DOCPROBE_ADVANCED is set or not,
MTD_DOCPROBE_ADDRESS will default to either 0x0000 or 0. That should
lead to (basically) identical code in docprobe.c. The current two
defaults should be merged.

And, while we're at it, if MTD_DOCPROBE is set MTD_DOCPROBE_ADDRESS will
always be set. (MTD_DOCPROBE_ADDRESS depends on MTD_DOCPROBE and it has
a default value.) So the check whether CONFIG_MTD_DOCPROBE_ADDRESS is
defined is unnecessary and should be dropped.

Add support for DiskOnChip G3 chips. The support is quite
limited yet :
 - no flash writes/erases are implemented
 - ECC fixes are not implemented
 - powerdown is not implemented
 - IPL handling is not yet done

On the brighter side, the chip reading does work.
