UBI: add notification API
UBI volume notifications are intended to create the API to get clients notified about volume creation/deletion, renaming and re-sizing. A client can subscribe to these notifications using 'ubi_volume_register()' and cancel the subscription using 'ubi_volume_unregister()'. When UBI volumes change, a blocking notifier is called. Clients also can request "added" events on all volumes that existed before client subscribed to the notifications. If we use notifications instead of calling functions like 'ubi_gluebi_xxx()', we can make the MTD emulation layer to be more flexible: build it as a separate module and load/unload it on demand. [Artem: many cleanups, rework locking, add "updated" event, provide device/volume info in notifiers] Signed-off-by: Dmitry Pervushin <dpervushin@embeddedalley.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
