These symbols are replaced with mtd_device_register() (and removal with
mtd_device_unregister()) for public registration.

If we don't have OpenFirmware enabled then provide a stub
of_mtd_parse_partitions that returns no partitions so drivers don't need
ifdeffery inside.

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.
v2: move kerneldoc to implementation file and fixup some kerneldoc
warnings.
Artem: tweak comments: remove junk tabs, use dots consistently.

Function mtd_has_master renamed as mtd_is_partition to follow the function logic.
The patch fixes the problem of checking the right mtd device for partition creation.
To delete partition checking is not needed here so as it is done in mtd_del_partition.
By master we consider the mtd device which does not belong to any partition.

mtd_is_master, mtd_add_partition and mtd_del_partition functions
are added to give the possibility of partition manipulation
by ioctl request.
The old partition add function is modified to fit the dynamic
allocation.

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.

When declaring static MTD partitions in board specific code, only
including <include/linux/mtd/partitions.h> should suffice without
gcc nagging us with:

This breaks the dilnetpc map driver, but it could be fixed not to use
that option. We want to simplify the partition handling, and this is a
step towards that.
Remove superfluous 'index' field from private struct mtd_part too, while
we're at it.

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

Once upon a time, the MTD repository was using CVS.
This patch therefore removes all usages of the no longer updated CVS
keywords from the MTD code.
This also includes code that printed them to the user.

The nand_oobinfo structure is not fitting the newer error correction
demands anymore. Replace it by struct nand_ecclayout and fixup the users
all over the place. Keep the nand_oobinfo based ioctl for user space
compability reasons.

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!
