<id>urn:sha1:eba485ec7b69e8b8dfd700ae9e0779865f877644</id>
<content type='text'>
commit a4d62babf988fe5dfde24437fa135ef147bc7aa0 upstream.

Hardware:
	CPU: XLP832,the 64-bit OS
	NOR Flash:S29GL128S 128M
Software:
	Kernel:2.6.32.41
	Filesystem:JFFS2
When writing files, errors appear:
	Write len 182  but return retlen 180
	Write of 182 bytes at 0x072c815c failed. returned -5, retlen 180
	Write len 186  but return retlen 184
	Write of 186 bytes at 0x072caff4 failed. returned -5, retlen 184
These errors exist only in 64-bit systems,not in 32-bit systems. After analysis, we
found that the left shift operation is wrong in map_word_load_partial. For instance:
	unsigned char buf[3] ={0x9e,0x3a,0xea};
	map_bankwidth(map) is 4;
	for (i=0; i &lt; 3; i++) {
		int bitpos;
		bitpos = (map_bankwidth(map)-1-i)*8;
		orig.x[0] &amp;= ~(0xff &lt;&lt; bitpos);
		orig.x[0] |= buf[i] &lt;&lt; bitpos;
	}

The value of orig.x[0] is expected to be 0x9e3aeaff, but in this situation(64-bit
System) we'll get the wrong value of 0xffffffff9e3aeaff due to the 64-bit sign
extension:
buf[i] is defined as "unsigned char" and the left-shift operation will convert it
to the type of "signed int", so when left-shift buf[i] by 24 bits, the final result
will get the wrong value: 0xffffffff9e3aeaff.

If the left-shift bits are less than 24, then sign extension will not occur. Whereas
the bankwidth of the nor flash we used is 4, therefore this BUG emerges.

<title>mtd: nand: allow NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE to be set from driver</title>

<content type='text'>
commit bf7a01bf7987b63b121d572b240c132ec44129c4 upstream.

The NAND_CHIPOPTIONS_MSK has limited utility and is causing real bugs. It
silently masks off at least one flag that might be set by the driver
(NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE). This breaks the GPMI NAND driver and possibly
others.

Really, as long as driver writers exercise a small amount of care with
NAND_* options, this mask is not necessary at all; it was only here to
prevent certain options from accidentally being set by the driver. But the
original thought turns out to be a bad idea occasionally. Thus, kill it.

Note, this patch fixes some major gpmi-nand breakage.

<title>include: replace linux/module.h with "struct module" wherever possible</title>

<id>urn:sha1:de47725421ad5627a5c905f4e40bb844ebc06d29</id>
<content type='text'>
The &lt;linux/module.h&gt; pretty much brings in the kitchen sink along
with it, so it should be avoided wherever reasonably possible in
terms of being included from other commonly used &lt;linux/something.h&gt;
files, as it results in a measureable increase on compile times.

The worst culprit was probably device.h since it is used everywhere.
This file also had an implicit dependency/usage of mutex.h which was
masked by module.h, and is also fixed here at the same time.

There are over a dozen other headers that simply declare the
struct instead of pulling in the whole file, so follow their lead
and simply make it a few more.

Most of the implicit dependencies on module.h being present by
these headers pulling it in have been now weeded out, so we can
finally make this change with hopefully minimal breakage.

These functions can be used instead of referencing -EUCLEAN and -EBADMSG
all over the place. They should help make code a little bit more
readable.

The nand_chip.ops field is a struct that is passed around globally with
no particular reason. Every time it is used, it could just as easily be
replaced with a local struct that is updated on each operation. So make
it local.

We're missing a lot of important documentation in include/mtd/mtd-abi.h:

* add a simple description of each ioctl (feel free to expand!)
* give full explanations of recently added and modified operations
* explain the usage of "RAW" that appear in different modes and types of
  operations
* fix some comment style along the way

These modes are not necessarily for OOB only. Particularly, MTD_OOB_RAW
affected operations on in-band page data as well. To clarify these
options and to emphasize that their effect is applied per-operation, we
change the primary prefix to MTD_OPS_.

<content type='text'>
We will want to use the MTD_OOB_{PLACE,AUTO,RAW} modes in user-space
applications through the introduction of new ioctls, so we should make
this enum a shared type.

This enum is now anonymous.

Artem: tweaked the patch.
