commit f6d7c1b5598b6407c3f1da795dd54acf99c1990c upstream.

This fixes subpage writes when using 4-bit HW ECC.

There has been numerous reports about ECC errors with devices using this
driver for a while.  Also the 4-bit ECC has been reported as broken with
subpages in [1] and with 16 bits NANDs in the driver and in mach* board
files both in mainline and in the vendor BSPs.

What I saw with 4-bit ECC on a 16bits NAND (on an LCDK) which got me to
try reinitializing the ECC engine:
- R/W on whole pages properly generates/checks RS code
- try writing the 1st subpage only of a blank page, the subpage is well
  written and the RS code properly generated, re-reading the same page
  the HW detects some ECC error, reading the same page again no ECC
  error is detected

Note that the ECC engine is already reinitialized in the 1-bit case.

Tested on my LCDK with UBI+UBIFS using subpages.
This could potentially get rid of the issue workarounded in [1].

<title>mtd: nand: fix bug writing 1 byte less than page size</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7928de5185f04b970dc9505cb8caa1cb5e46fa07</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 144f4c98399e2c0ca60eb414c15a2c68125c18b8 upstream.

nand_do_write_ops() determines if it is writing a partial page with the
formula:
	part_pagewr = (column || writelen &lt; (mtd-&gt;writesize - 1))

When 'writelen' is exactly 1 byte less than the NAND page size the formula
equates to zero, so the code doesn't process it as a partial write,
although it should.
As a consequence the function remains in the while(1) loop with 'writelen'
becoming 0xffffffff and iterating endlessly.

The bug may not be easy to reproduce in Linux since user space tools
usually force the padding or round-up the write size to a page-size
multiple.
This was discovered in U-Boot where the issue can be reproduced by
writing any size that is 1 byte less than a page-size multiple.
For example, on a NAND with 2K page (0x800):
	=&gt; nand erase.part &lt;partition&gt;
	=&gt; nand write $loadaddr &lt;partition&gt; 7ff

[Editor's note: the bug was added in commit 29072b96078f, but moved
around in commit 66507c7bc8895 ("mtd: nand: Add support to use nand_base
poi databuf as bounce buffer")]

commit 20c07a5bf094198ff2382aa5e7c930b3c9807792 upstream.

Since commit 807f16d4db95 ("mtd: core: set some defaults
when dev.parent is set"), it's now legal for drivers
to call nand_scan and nand_scan_ident without setting
mtd.owner.

Drop the check and while at it remove the BUG() abuse.

[Brian: editorial note - while commit 807f16d4db95 wasn't explicitly
    broken, some follow-up commits in the v4.4 release broke a few
    drivers, since they would hit this BUG() if they used nand_scan()
    and were built as modules]

commit d267aefc54a28efc5bda7f009598dc83b5f98734 upstream.

The BRCMNAND controller revision 7.1 is almost 100% compatible with the
previous v6.0 register offset layout, except for the Correctable Error
Reporting Threshold registers. Fix this by adding another table with the
correct offsets for CORR_THRESHOLD and CORR_THRESHOLD_EXT.

commit f7a8e38f07a17be90758559fe66fe7337096053f upstream.

Commits such as commit 853f1c58c4b2 ("mtd: nand: omap2: show parent
device structure in sysfs") attempt to rely on the core MTD code to set
the MTD name based on the parent device. However, nand_base tries to set
a different default name according to the flash name (e.g., extracted
from the ONFI parameter page), which means NAND drivers will never make
use of the MTD defaults. This is not the intention of commit
853f1c58c4b2.

This results in problems when trying to use the cmdline partition
parser, since the MTD name is different than expected. Let's fix this by
providing a default NAND name, where possible.

Note that this is not really a great default name in the long run, since
this means that if there are multiple MTDs attached to the same
controller device, they will have the same name. But that is an existing
issue and requires future work on a better controller vs. flash chip
abstraction to fix properly.

<title>mtd: nand: fix shutdown/reboot for multi-chip systems</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9ca641b0f02a3a1eedbc8c296e695326da9bbaf9</id>
<content type='text'>
If multiple NAND chips are registered to the same controller, then when
rebooting the system, the first one will grab the controller lock, while
the second will wait forever for the first one to release it. i.e., a
classic deadlock.

This problem was solved for a similar case (suspend/resume) back in
commit 6b0d9a841249 ("mtd: nand: fix multi-chip suspend problem"), and
the shutdown state really isn't much different for us, so rather than
adding a new special case to nand_get_device(), we can just overload the
FL_PM_SUSPENDED state.

Now, multiple chips can "get" the same controller lock (preventing
further I/O), while we still allow other chips to pass through
nand_shutdown().

Just like other NAND controllers, the NAND READID command only works
in 8bit mode for all versions of BRCMNAND controller.

This patch forces 8bit mode for each NAND CS in brcmnand_init_cs()
before doing nand_scan_ident() to ensure that BRCMNAND controller
is in 8bit mode when NAND READID command is issued.
