Change RomFS so that it can use MTD devices directly - without the intercession
of the block layer - as well as using block devices.
This permits RomFS:
(1) to use the MTD direct mapping facility available under NOMMU conditions if
the underlying device is directly accessible by the CPU (including XIP);
(2) and thus to be used when the block layer is disabled.
RomFS can be configured with support just for MTD devices, just for Block
devices or for both. If RomFS is configured for both, then it will treat
mtdblock device files as MTD backing stores, not block layer backing stores.
I tested this using a CONFIG_MMU=n CONFIG_BLOCK=n kernel running on my FRV
board with a RomFS image installed on the mtdram test device. I see my test
program being run XIP:
# cat /proc/maps
...
c0c000b0-c0c01f8c r-xs 00000000 1f:00 144 /mnt/doshm
...
GDB on the kernel can be used to show that these addresses are within the
set-aside RAM space.

Add support for direct mapping through mtdconcat, if possible, by attaching the
samebacking_dev_info structure to the master.
It has some restrictions:
(1) It won't permit direct mapping of concatenated devices that have differing
BDIs.
(2) It doesn't support maps that span the 'gap' between devices, although it
possibly could if the devices spanned across return compatible
(ie. contiguous) addresses from their get_unmapped_area() ops.

MTD's have both an index number and a name. Formerly,
the MTD selected for mtdoops was done only by index
number. With this patch, a name can be used instead.
For example, the kernel command line:
console=ttyMTD5
selects MTD 5 for mtdoops. But now this is also possible:
console=ttyMTD,log
which selects the MTD named "log" for mtdoops.
This has the advantage that partitions can be added or
removed that would affect the MTD index number but not the
name, without having to then change the kernel command line.

IMO all MTD debugging message framework is goofed, anyway. It uses

This is a device driver for the NAND flash controller found on the various
DaVinci family chips. It handles up to four SoC chipselects, and some
flavors of secondary chipselect (e.g. based on upper bits of the address
bus) as used with some multichip packages. (Including the 2 GiB chips
used on some TI devel boards.)
The 1-bit ECC hardware is supported (3 bytes ECC per 512 bytes data); but
not yet the newer 4-bit ECC (10 bytes ECC per 512 bytes data), as
available on chips like the DM355 or OMAP-L137 and needed with the more
error-prone MLC NAND chips.
This is a cleaned-up version of code that's been in use for several years
now; sanity checked with the new drivers/mtd/tests.

The syndrome based page read/write routines store ECC, and possibly other
"OOB" data, right after each chunk of ECC'd data. With ECC chunk size of
512 bytes and a large page (2KiB) NAND, the layout is:
data-0 OOB-0 data-1 OOB-1 data-2 OOB-2 data-3 OOB-3 OOB-leftover
Where OOBx is (prepad, ECC, postpad). However, the current "raw" routines
use a traditional layout -- data OOB, disregarding the prepad and postpad
values -- so when they're used with that type of ECC hardware, those calls
mix up the data and OOB. Which means, in particular, that bad block
tables won't be found on startup, with data corruption and related chaos
ensuing.
The current syndrome-based drivers in mainline all seem to use one chunk
per page; presumably they haven't noticed such bugs.
Fix this, by adding read/write page_raw_syndrome() routines as siblings of
the existing non-raw routines; "raw" just means to bypass the ECC
computations, not change data and OOB layout.

The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a
bogus io context was returning the 1 valid io context from the list
(harness/cases/3.p).
Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process
exited, it hit a BUG_ON in the put_iocontext macro called from exit_aio
(since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0).
The problem was introduced by "aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless"
(commit abf137dd77).

Remove a source of fput() call from inside IRQ context. Myself, like Eric,

able to, with the attached test program. Independently from this, the bug is
conceptually there, so we might be better off fixing it. This patch adds an
optimization similar to the one we already do on ->ki_filp, on ->ki_eventfd.
Playing with ->f_count directly is not pretty in general, but the alternative

Nick Piggin noticed this (very unlikely) race between setting a page
dirty and creating the buffers for it - we need to hold the mapping
private_lock until we've set the page dirty bit in order to make sure
that create_empty_buffers() might not build up a set of buffers without
the dirty bits set when the page is dirty.
I doubt anybody has ever hit this race (and it didn't solve the issue
Nick was looking at), but as Nick says: "Still, it does appear to solve
a real race, which we should close."

which technically is undefined for non-unsigned types. See
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12597

Make page table walking on s390 more robust. The current code requires
that the pgd/pud/pmd/pte loop is only done for address ranges that are
below the end address of the last vma of the address space. But this
is not always true, e.g. the generic page table walker does not guarantee
this. Change TASK_SIZE/TASK_SIZE_OF to reflect the current size of the
address space. This makes the generic page table walker happy but it
breaks the upgrade of a 3 level page table to a 4 level page table.
To make the upgrade work again another fix is required.
