Pull MTD update from Brian Norris:
"Sorry for delaying this a bit later than usual. There's one mild
regression from 3.16 that was noticed during the 3.17 cycle, and I
meant to send a fix for it along with this pull request. I'll
probably try to queue it up for a later pull request once I've had a
better look at it, hopefully by -rc2 at the latest.
Summary for this pull:
NAND
- Cleanup for Denali driver
- Atmel: add support for new page sizes
- Atmel: fix up 'raw' mode support
- Atmel: miscellaneous cleanups
- New timing mode helpers for non-ONFI NAND
- OMAP: allow driver to be (properly) built as a module
- bcm47xx: RESET support and other cleanups
SPI NOR
- Miscellaneous cleanups, to prepare framework for wider use (some
further work still pending)
- Compile-time configuration to select 4K vs. 64K support for flash
that support both (necessary for using UBIFS on some SPI NOR)
A few scattered code quality fixes, detected by Coverity
See the changesets for more"
