Merge tag 'for-linus-20131112' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-mtd
Pull MTD changes from Brian Norris:
- Unify some compile-time differences so that we have fewer uses of
#ifdef CONFIG_OF in atmel_nand
- Other general cleanups (removing unused functions, options,
variables, fields; use correct interfaces)
- Fix BUG() for new odd-sized NAND, which report non-power-of-2
dimensions via ONFI
- Miscellaneous driver fixes (SPI NOR flash; BCM47xx NAND flash; etc.)
- Improve differentiation between SLC and MLC NAND -- this clarifies an
ABI issue regarding the MTD "type" (in sysfs and in the MEMGETINFO
ioctl), where the MTD_MLCNANDFLASH type was present but
inconsistently used
- Extend GPMI NAND to support multi-chip-select NAND for some platforms
- Many improvements to the OMAP2/3 NAND driver, including an expanded
DT binding to bring us closer to mainline support for some OMAP
systems
- Fix a deadlock in the error path of the Atmel NAND driver probe
- Correct the error codes from MTD mmap() to conform to POSIX and the
Linux Programmer's Manual. This is an acknowledged change in the MTD
ABI, but I can't imagine somebody relying on the non-standard -ENOSYS
error code specifically. Am I just being unimaginative? :)
- Fix a few important GPMI NAND bugs (one regression from 3.12 and one
long-standing race condition)
- More? Read the log!
