<content type='text'>
This changes the behavier of MTD_OOB_RAW. It used to read both OOB and 
data to the data buffer, however you would still need to specify the 
dummy oob buffer.

This is only used in one place, but makes it hard to read data+oob 
without ECC test, thus I removed that behavier, and fixed the user.

Now MTD_OOB_RAW behaves just like MTD_OOB_PLACE, but doesn't do ECC 
validation

The patch fixes a bug when converting dev to mtd_info by using the
drvdata of the dev, the previous code used
container_of(dev, struct mtd_info, dev), but won't work for the mtdXro
devices as they created without being contained inside mtd_info structure.

<title>[MTD] driver model updates</title>

<id>1f24b5a8ecbb2a3c7080f418974d40e3ffedb221</id>
<content type='text'>
Update driver model support in the MTD framework, so it fits
better into the current udev-based hotplug framework:

 - Each mtd_info now has a device node.  MTD drivers should set
   the dev.parent field to point to the physical device, before
   setting up partitions or otherwise declaring MTDs.

 - Those device nodes always map to /sys/class/mtdX device nodes,
   which no longer depend on MTD_CHARDEV.

 - Those mtdX sysfs nodes have a "starter set" of attributes;
   it's not yet sufficient to replace /proc/mtd.

 - Enabling MTD_CHARDEV provides /sys/class/mtdXro/ nodes and the
   /sys/class/mtd*/dev attributes (for udev, mdev, etc).

 - Include a MODULE_ALIAS_CHARDEV_MAJOR macro.  It'll work with
   udev creating the /dev/mtd* nodes, not just a static rootfs.

So the sysfs structure is pretty much what you'd expect, except
that readonly chardev nodes are a bit quirky.

<title>[MTD] update internal API to support 64-bit device size</title>

<id>69423d99fc182a81f3c5db3eb5c140acc6fc64be</id>
<content type='text'>
MTD internal API presently uses 32-bit values to represent
device size.  This patch updates them to 64-bits but leaves
the external API unchanged.  Extending the external API
is a separate issue for several reasons.  First, no one
needs it at the moment.  Secondly, whether the implementation
is done with IOCTLs, sysfs or both is still debated.  Thirdly
external API changes require the internal API to be accepted
first.

Note that although the MTD API will be able to support 64-bit
device sizes, existing drivers do not and are not required
to do so, although NAND base has been updated.

In general, changing from 32-bit to 64-bit values cause little
or no changes to the majority of the code with the following
exceptions:
    	- printk message formats
    	- division and modulus of 64-bit values
    	- NAND base support
	- 32-bit local variables used by mtdpart and mtdconcat
	- naughtily assuming one structure maps to another
	in MEMERASE ioctl
