Generic MTD
* populate the MTD device 'of_node' field (and get a proper 'of_node' symlink
in sysfs)
- This yielded some new helper functions, and changes across a variety of
drivers
* partitioning cleanups, to prepare for better device-tree based partitioning
in the future
- Eliminate a lot of boilerplate for drivers that want to use OF-based
partition parsing
- The DT bindings for this didn't settle yet, so most non-cleanup portions
are deferred for a future release
NAND
* embed a struct mtd_info inside struct nand_chip
- This is really long overdue; too many drivers have to do the same silly
boilerplate to allocate and link up two "independent" structs, when in
fact, everyone is assuming there is an exact 1:1 relationship between a
NAND chips struct and its underlying MTD. This aids improved helpers and
should make certain abstractions easier in the future.
- Also causes a lot of churn, helped along by some automated code
transformations
* add more core support for detecting (and "correcting") bitflips in erased
pages; requires opt-in by drivers, but at least we kill a few bad
implementations and hopefully stave off future ones
* pxa3xx_nand: cleanups, a few fixes, and PM improvements
* new JZ4780 NAND driver
SPI NOR
* provide default erase function, for controllers that just want to send the
SECTOR_ERASE command directly
* fix some module auto-loading issues with device tree ("jedec,spi-nor")
* error handling fixes
* new Mediatek QSPI flash driver
Other
* cfi: force valid geometry Kconfig (finally!)
- this one used to trip up randconfigs occasionally, since bots aren't
deterred by big scary "advanced configuration" menus
More? Probably. See the commit logs.
