Ezequiel Garcia e07403a8c6 mtdblock: Warn if added for a NAND device
There is a surprisingly large number of tutorials
that suggest using mtdblock to mount SquashFS filesystems
on flash devices, including NAND devices.

This approach is suboptimal than using UBI. If the flash device
is NAND, this is specially true, due to wear leveling, bit-flips and
badblocks. In this case UBI is strongly preferred, so be nice to users
and print a warning suggesting to consider UBI block, if mtdblock
is added for a NAND device.

Dejin Zheng b1f9604f4d mtd: mtdblock_ro: Use module_mtd_blktrans to register driver
Removing some boilerplate by using module_mtd_blktrans instead of calling
register and unregister in the otherwise empty init/exit functions.

Maxim Levitsky 048d871995 mtd: blktrans: Hotplug fixes
* Add locking where it was missing.

* Don't do a get_mtd_device in blktrans_open because it would lead to a
  deadlock; instead do that in add_mtd_blktrans_dev.

* Only free the mtd_blktrans_dev structure when the last user exits.

* Flush request queue on device removal.

* Track users, and call tr->release in del_mtd_blktrans_dev
  Due to that ->open and release aren't called more that once.

Now it is safe to call del_mtd_blktrans_dev while the device is still in use.

Adrian Bunk 59018b6d2a MTD/JFFS2: remove CVS keywords

This patch therefore removes all usages of the no longer updated CVS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.

Richard Purdie 1918767299 [MTD] Allow variable block sizes in mtd_blkdevs
Currently, mtd_blkdevs enforces a block size of 512, even if the drivers
can seemingly request a different size. This patch fixes mtd_blkdevs so
block sizes other than 512 work correctly.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
