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.

However, we forgot to set this parameter for block2mtd. Set it to PAGE_SIZE
because this is actually the amount of data we write at a time.

commit 5289966ea576a062b80319975b31b661c196ff9d upstream.

This has been moved from .options to .bbt_options meanwhile. So, it
currently checks for something totally different (NAND_OWN_BUFFERS) and
decides according to that.

commit a3c1e3b732b3708a80e4035b9d845f3f7c7dd0c9 upstream.

In commit "c797533 mtd: abstract last MTD partition parser argument" the
third argument of "mtd_device_parse_register()" changed from start address
of the MTD device to a pointer to a struct.

The "ixp4xx_flash_probe()" function was not converted properly, causing
an oops during boot.

This patch fixes the problem by filling the needed information into a
"struct mtd_part_parser_data" and passing it to
"mtd_device_parse_register()".

commit 7eb3aa65853e1b223bfc786b023b702018cb76c0 upstream.

The 'find_wl_entry()' function expects the maximum difference as the second
argument, not the maximum absolute value. So the "unknown" eraseblock picking
was incorrect, as Shmulik Ladkani spotted. This patch fixes the issue.

commit a29852be492d61001d86c6ebf5fff9b93d7b4be9 upstream.

Two bad things can happen in ubi_scan():
1. If kmem_cache_create() fails we jump to out_si and call
   ubi_scan_destroy_si() which calls kmem_cache_destroy().
   But si-&gt;scan_leb_slab is NULL.
2. If process_eb() fails we jump to out_vidh, call
   kmem_cache_destroy() and ubi_scan_destroy_si() which calls
   again kmem_cache_destroy().

commit 500823195d0c9eec2a4637484f30cc93ec633d4a upstream.

This reverts commit fb5427508abbd635e877fabdf55795488119c2d6.

The reason is that it breaks 16 bits NAND flash as it was reported by
Nikolaus Voss and confirmed by Eric Bénard.

Nicolas Ferre &lt;nicolas.ferre@atmel.com&gt; alco confirmed:
"After double checking with designers, I must admit that I misunderstood
the way of optimizing accesses to SMC. 16 bit nand is not so common
those days..."
