Both existing instances always return 0 and even if they didn't,
the value would be lost on the way out.  Just don't bother...

Just as Artem suggested:

"Both UBI and JFFS2 are able to read verify what they wrote already.
There are also MTD tests which do this verification. So I think there
is no reason to keep this in the NAND layer, let alone wasting RAM in
the driver to support this feature. Besides, it does not work for sub-pages
and many drivers have it broken. It hurts more than it provides benefits."

So kill MTD_NAND_VERIFY_WRITE entirely.

We are working in the direction of making sure that MTD clients to not
use 'mtd-&gt;func' pointers directly. In some places we want to know if
OOB operations are supported by an MTD device. Introduce 'mtd_has_oob()'
helper for these purposes.

<id>7e1f0dc0551b99acb5e8fa161a7ac401994d57d8</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch is part of a patch-set which changes the MTD interface
from 'mtd-&gt;func()' form to 'mtd_func()' form. We need this because
we want to add common code to to all drivers in the mtd core level,
which is impossible with the current interface when MTD clients
call driver functions like 'read()' or 'write()' directly.

At this point we just introduce a new inline wrapper function, but
later some of them are expected to gain more code. E.g., the input
parameters check should be moved to the wrappers rather than be
duplicated at many drivers.

This particular patch introduced the 'mtd_erase()' interface. The
following patches add all the other interfaces one by one.
