Pull mtd update from David Woodhouse:
 - More robust parsing especially of xattr data in JFFS2
 - Updates to mxc_nand and gpmi drivers to support new boards and device tree
 - Improve consistency of information about ECC strength in NAND devices
 - Clean up partition handling of plat_nand
 - Support NAND drivers without dedicated access to OOB area
 - BCH hardware ECC support for OMAP
 - Other fixes and cleanups, and a few new device IDs

Fixed trivial conflict in drivers/mtd/nand/gpmi-nand/gpmi-nand.c due to
added include files next to each other.

The 'mtd_writev' interface calls the function assigned
to the '_write' field of a given mtd device if that is
not NULL. The block2mtd driver sets the '_writev' field
to the 'mtd_writev' function itself and thus causes a
endless loop.

This is caused by 1dbebd32562b3c2caeca35960e5cb00bfcc12900
(mtd: harmonize mtd_writev usage).

Remove the assignment from the block2mtd driver to fix the
issue.

<title>mtd: docg3 fix in-middle of blocks reads</title>

<id>52c2d9aad4923536c10d278e02da2e0254e46ee0</id>
<content type='text'>
Corner case reads do not work, and return false data and
ECC. This case is typically seen in a ubifs usage, with a
read of type:
 - docg3 docg3: doc_read_oob(from=14882415, mode=1,
 data=(c30eca40:12), oob=(  (null):0))

This results in the following reads:
 - docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf=  (null), len=111)
 - docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf=c30eca40, len=12)
 - docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf=  (null), len=389)
 - docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf=  (null), len=0)
 - docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf=  (null), len=16)

If we suppose that the pages content is :
 - bytes 0 .. 111   : 0x0a
 - bytes 112 .. 255 : 0x0f
Then the returned bytes will be :
 - 111 times 0x0a (correct)
 - 0x0a 2 times and 0x0f 10 times (incorrect, should be
 0x0a,0x0f)
 - 0x0f 389 times (correct)
 - nothing
 - correct OOB

The reason seams that the first 111 bytes read ends between
the 2 docg3 planes, and that the first following read (in
the 12 bytes sequence, read of 16 bit word) returns the byte
of the rightmost plane duplicated in high and lower byte of
the word.

Fix this behaviour by ensuring that if the previous read
ended up in-between the 2 planes, there will be a first 1
byte read to get back to the beginning of leftmost plane.

<title>mtd: driver _read() returns max_bitflips; mtd_read() returns -EUCLEAN</title>

The drivers' _read() method, absent an error, returns a non-negative integer
indicating the maximum number of bit errors that were corrected in any one
region comprising an ecc step.  MTD returns -EUCLEAN if this is &gt;=
bitflip_threshold, 0 otherwise.  If bitflip_threshold is zero, the comparison is
not made since these devices lack ECC and always return zero in the non-error
case (thanks Brian)¹.  Note that this is a subtle change to the driver
interface.

This and the preceding patches in this set were tested with ubi on top of the
nandsim and docg4 devices, running the ubi test io_basic from mtd-utils.
