If partition parsers need to clean up their resources, we shouldn't
assume that all memory will fit in a single kmalloc() that the caller
can kfree(). We should allow the parser to provide a proper cleanup
routine.
Note that this means we need to keep a hold on the parser's module for a
bit longer, and release it later with mtd_part_parser_put().
Alongside this, define a default callback that we'll automatically use
if the parser doesn't provide one, so we can still retain the old
behavior.

For some of the core partitioning code, it helps to keep info about the
parsed partition (and who parsed them) together in one place.

We only want to modify these arrays inside the parser "drivers", so the
drivers should construct them however they like, then return them as
immutable arrays.
This will make other refactorings easier.

This can help eliminate some boilerplate by generating the module_init()

It seems more logical to use a device node directly associated with the
MTD master device (i.e., mtd->dev.of_node field) rather than requiring
auxiliary partition parser information to be passed in by the driver in
a separate struct.
This patch supports the mtd->dev.of_node field and deprecates the parser
data 'of_node' field
Driver conversions may now follow.
Additional side benefit to assigning mtd->dev.of_node rather than using
parser data: the driver core will automatically create a device -> node
symlink for us.

Prepare to convert of_mtd_parse_partitions() to usual partitions parser:
1) Register ofpart parser
2) Internally don't use passed device for error printing
3) Add device_node to mtd_part_parser_data struct
4) Move of_mtd_parse_partitions from __devinit to common text section
5) add ofpart to the default list of partition parsers

To prepare for the removal of add_mtd_device and add_mtd_partitions(),
introduce mtd_device_register(). This will create partitions if they
are supplied or register the whole device if there are no partitions.
Once all drivers are converted to use mtd_device_register(),
add_mtd_device() and add_mtd_partitions() will be made internal only.

struct nand_ecclayout is too small for many new chips; OOB regions can be as
large as 448 bytes and may increase more in the future. Thus, copying that
struct to user-space with the ECCGETLAYOUT ioctl is not a good idea; the ioctl
would have to be updated every time there's a change to the current largest
size.
Instead, the old nand_ecclayout is renamed to nand_ecclayout_user and a
new struct nand_ecclayout is created that can accomodate larger sizes and
expand without affecting the user-space. struct nand_ecclayout can still
be used in board drivers without modification -- at least for now.
A new function is provided to convert from the new to the old in order to
allow the deprecated ioctl to continue to work with truncated data. Perhaps
the ioctl, the conversion process, and the struct nand_ecclayout_user can be
removed altogether in the future.
Note: There are comments in nand/davinci_nand.c::nand_davinci_probe()
regarding this issue; this driver (and maybe others) can be updated to
account for extra space. All kernel drivers can use the expanded
nand_ecclayout as a drop-in replacement and ignore its benefits.

Move mtd_has_partitions() and mtd_has_cmdlinepart() inlines from a
DaVinci-specific driver to the <linux/mtd/partitions.h> header.
Use those to eliminate #ifdefs in two drivers which had their own
definitions of mtd_has_partitions().
Quite a lot of other MTD drivers could benefit from using use one or both
of these to remove #ifdeffery. Maybe some Janitors would like to help.

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

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
