Pull MTD updates from Brian Norris:
"MTD updates for 4.11:
General:
- new kernel API for retrieving max bad blocks per die (not used yet)
- track (and expose via sysfs) a partition's device tree node
- support a "label" device tree property for naming an MTD
NAND:
- sunxi: avoid busy-waiting for NAND events
- ifc: fix ECC handling on IFC v1.0
- OX820: add explicit dependency on ARCH_OXNAS in Kconfig
- core: add a new manufacture ID and fix a kernel-doc warning
- fsmc: kill pdata support
- lpc32xx_slc: remove unneeded NULL check
- support dynamic "max bad blocks" detection via ONFI
SPI NOR:
- add support for the 4-byte address instruction set
- add support for new memory parts
- add support to S3AN memories
- add support to the Intel SPI controller
- add support to the Aspeed AST2400 and AST2550 controllers
- support max SPI message sizes in m25p80_read()
- fixes for the Candence and Freescale QSPI drivers
Other:
- add support for Gemini flash probing
- bcm47xxsflash: add support for reading outside memory-mapped window
- bcm47xxparts: extend to support multiple TRX partitions
- misc fixes and typos
Extra note: we've pulled in an MFD subtree from Lee Jones as a
dependency for a new Intel SPI NOR driver"
[ Kudos to Brian for sending pull request a week early:
"I refuse to acknowledge the existence of 4.10-rc8 and am therefore
sending our MTD changes for 4.11 now"
which is all good ]
