b60b08b02c mtd: nand: support alternate BB marker locations on MLC
This is a slightly modified version of a patch submitted last year by
Reuben Dowle <reuben.dowle@navico.com>.  His original comments follow:

This patch adds support for some MLC NAND flashes that place the BB
marker in the LAST page of the bad block rather than the FIRST page used
for SLC NAND and other types of MLC nand.

Lifted from Samsung datasheet for K9LG8G08U0A (1Gbyte MLC NAND):
"
Identifying Initial Invalid Block(s)
All device locations are erased(FFh) except locations where the initial
invalid block(s) information is written prior to shipping. The initial
invalid block(s) status is defined by the 1st byte in the spare area.
Samsung makes sure that the last page of every initial invalid block has
non-FFh data at the column address of 2,048.
...
"

As far as I can tell, this is the same for all Samsung MLC nand, and in
fact the samsung bsp for the processor used in our project (s3c6410)
actually contained a hack similar to this patch but less portable to
enable use of their NAND parts. I discovered this problem when trying to
use a Micron NAND which does not used this layout - I wish samsung would
put their stuff in main-line to avoid this type of problem.

Currently this patch causes all MLC nand with manufacturer codes from
Samsung and ST(Numonyx) to use this alternative location, since these
are the manufactures that I know of that use this layout.

426c457a32 mtd: nand: extend NAND flash detection to new MLC chips
Some of the newer MLC devices have a 6-byte ID sequence in which
several field definitions differ from older chips in a manner that is
not backward compatible.  For instance:

Samsung K9GAG08U0M (5-byte sequence): ec d5 14 b6 74
4th byte, bits 1:0 encode the page size: 0=1KiB, 1=2KiB, 2=4KiB, 3=8KiB
4th byte, bits 5:4 encode the block size: 0=64KiB, 1=128KiB, ...
4th byte, bit 6 encodes the OOB size: 0=8B/512B, 1=16B/512B

Samsung K9GAG08U0D (6-byte sequence): ec d5 94 29 34 41
4th byte, bits 1:0 encode the page size: 0=2KiB, 1=4KiB, 3=8KiB, 4=rsvd
4th byte, bits 7;5:4 encode the block size: 0=128KiB, 1=256KiB, ...
4th byte, bits 6;3:2 encode the OOB size: 1=128B/page, 2=218B/page

This patch uses the new 6-byte scheme if the following conditions are
all true:

1) The ID code wraps around after exactly 6 bytes

2) Manufacturer is Samsung

3) 6th byte is zero

The patch also extends the maximum OOB size from 128B to 256B.

b64d39d8b0 mtd: nand: make reads using MTD_OOB_RAW affect only ECC validation
This changes the behavier of MTD_OOB_RAW. It used to read both OOB and 
data to the data buffer, however you would still need to specify the 
dummy oob buffer.

This is only used in one place, but makes it hard to read data+oob 
without ECC test, thus I removed that behavier, and fixed the user.

Now MTD_OOB_RAW behaves just like MTD_OOB_PLACE, but doesn't do ECC 
validation

49ef3c6ee1 mtd: nand: make suspend work if device is accessed by kernel threads.
Since all userspace threads are frozen at the time the nand_suspend is called,
they aren't inside any nand function.

We don't call try_to_freeze in nand ether. Thus the only user that can 
be inside the nand functions is an non freezeable kernel thread. Thus we 
can safely wait for it to finish.

6e0cb135b3 mtd: nand: add new ECC mode - ECC_HW_OOB_FIRST
This patch adds the new mode NAND_ECC_HW_OOB_FIRST in the nand code to
support 4-bit ECC on TI DaVinci devices with large page (up to 2KiB) NAND
chips.  This ECC mode is similar to NAND_ECC_HW, with the exception of
read_page API that first reads the OOB area, reads the data in chunks,
feeds the ECC from OOB area to the ECC hw engine and perform any
correction on the data as per the ECC status reported by the engine.

"ECC_HW_OOB_FIRST" name suggested by Thomas Gleixner

52ff49df7f [MTD] [NAND] fix "raw" reads with ECC syndrome layouts
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.

69423d99fc [MTD] update internal API to support 64-bit device size
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

78b65179d0 [MTD] [NAND] Don't panic if a controller driver does ecc its own way.
Some hardware, such as the enhanced local bus controller used on some
mpc83xx chips, does ecc transparently when reading and writing data, rather
than providing a generic calculate/correct mechanism that can be exported to
the nand subsystem.

The subsystem should not BUG() when calculate, correct, or hwctl are
missing, if the methods that call them have been overridden.

c0b8ba7bfe [MTD] [NAND] fix race in nand_base.c
When we mark block bad we have to get chip because this involves
writing to the page's OOB. We hit this bug in UBI - we observed
random obscure crashes when it marks block bad from the background
thread and there is some parallel task which utilizes flash.

This patch also adds a TODO note about BBT table protection which
it seems does not exist.

8b099a390d [MTD] [NAND] nand_base.c: fix type of eccpos pointer
The nand_base.c driver implicitly casts the uint32_t
eccpos array to 'int *', which is not only not guaranteed
to be the same sign as the source, but is not guaranteed
to be the same size.

Fix by changing nand_base.c to use uint32_t
referencing the eccpos fields.

78ab67da10 [MTD] [NAND] Wrong calculation of page number in nand_block_bad()
In case that there is no memory based bad block table available the
function nand_block_checkbad() in drivers/mtd/nand/nand_base.c will call
nand_block_bad() directly. When parameter 'getchip' is set to zero,
nand_block_bad() will not right shift the offset to calculate the
correct page number.

4226b51037 [MTD] [NAND] Casting bug in nand_default_block_markbad
There is a slight bug in nand_default_block_markbad, where the offset is
cast to an integer, prior to being shifted. This means that on large
offsets, it is incorrectly doing a signed shift & losing bits. Fixed
this by doing the cast after the shift (as is done elsewhere in the code).

During the MTD rework the oobavail parameter of mtd_info structure has become
private. This is not quite correct in terms of integrity and logic. If we have
means to write to OOB area, then we'd like to know upfront how many bytes out
of OOB are spare per page to be able to adapt to specific cases.
The patch inlined adds the public oobavail parameter.

the offset must be less than the size of oob for a page
