* tag 'upstream-4.7-rc1' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-ubifs:
ubifs: ubifs_dump_inode: Fix dumping field bulk_read
UBI: Fix static volume checks when Fastmap is used
UBI: Set free_count to zero before walking through erase list
UBI: Silence an unintialized variable warning
UBI: Clean up return in ubi_remove_volume()
UBI: Modify wrong comment in ubi_leb_map function.
UBI: Don't read back all data in ubi_eba_copy_leb()
UBI: Add ro-mode sysfs attribute
Ezequiel reported that he's facing UBI going into read-only
mode after power cut. It turned out that this behavior happens
only when updating a static volume is interrupted and Fastmap is
used.
A possible trace can look like:

UBI checks static volumes for data consistency and reads the
whole volume upon first open. If the volume is found erroneous
users of UBI cannot read from it, but another volume update is
possible to fix it. The check is performed by running
ubi_eba_read_leb() on every allocated LEB of the volume.
For static volumes ubi_eba_read_leb() computes the checksum of all
data stored in a LEB. To verify the computed checksum it has to read
the LEB's volume header which stores the original checksum.
If the volume header is not found UBI treats this as fatal internal
error and switches to RO mode. If the UBI device was attached via a
full scan the assumption is correct, the volume header has to be
present as it had to be there while scanning to get known as mapped.
If the attach operation happened via Fastmap the assumption is no
longer correct. When attaching via Fastmap UBI learns the mapping
table from Fastmap's snapshot of the system state and not via a full
scan. It can happen that a LEB got unmapped after a Fastmap was
written to the flash. Then UBI can learn the LEB still as mapped and
accessing it returns only 0xFF bytes. As UBI is not a FTL it is
allowed to have mappings to empty PEBs, it assumes that the layer
above takes care of LEB accounting and referencing.
UBIFS does so using the LEB property tree (LPT).
For static volumes UBI blindly assumes that all LEBs are present and
therefore special actions have to be taken.
The described situation can happen when updating a static volume is
interrupted, either by a user or a power cut.
The volume update code first unmaps all LEBs of a volume and then
writes LEB by LEB. If the sequence of operations is interrupted UBI
detects this either by the absence of LEBs, no volume header present
at scan time, or corrupted payload, detected via checksum.
In the Fastmap case the former method won't trigger as no scan
happened and UBI automatically thinks all LEBs are present.
Only by reading data from a LEB it detects that the volume header is
missing and incorrectly treats this as fatal error.
To deal with the situation ubi_eba_read_leb() from now on checks
whether we attached via Fastmap and handles the absence of a
volume header like a data corruption error.
This way interrupted static volume updates will correctly get detected
also when Fastmap is used.

Set free_count to zero before walking through ai->erase list
in wl_init().
Found in U-Boot as U-Boot has no workqueue/threads, it immediately
calls erase_worker(), which increase for each erased block
free_count. Without this patch, free_count gets after
this initialized to zero in wl_init(), so the free_count
variable always has the maybe wrong value 0 in U-Boot.

Since fastmap we gained do_sync_erase(). This function can return an error
and its error handling isn't obvious. First the memory allocation for
struct ubi_work can fail and as such struct ubi_wl_entry is leaked.
However if the memory allocation succeeds then the tail function takes
care of the struct ubi_wl_entry. A free here could result in a double
free.
To make the error handling simpler, I split the tail function into one
piece which does the work and another which frees the struct ubi_work
which is passed as argument. As result do_sync_erase() can keep the
struct on stack and we get rid of one error source.

We are checking dfs_rootdir for error value or NULL. But in the

an error value and returned PTR_ERR(dfs_rootdir) if dfs_rootdir is NULL.
So in the case of dfs_rootdir being NULL we actually assigned 0 to err
and returned it to the caller implying a success.
Lets return -ENODEV when dfs_rootdir is NULL else return
PTR_ERR(dfs_rootdir).

A little bit of parameter work here too; including Dan Streetman's breaking
up the big param mutex so writing a parameter can load another module (yeah,
really). Unfortunately that broke the usual suspects, !CONFIG_MODULES and
!CONFIG_SYSFS, so those fixes were appended too.

This patch makes ubiblock devices have minor numbers beginning from
0, allocated dynamically independently of the ubi device/volume
number. This property becomes useful because, on 32-bit architectures
with LFS turned off in a userspace program, device minor numbers
over 8 bits cause stat to return -EOVERFLOW. If the device number is
high (>1) due to multiple MTD partitions, such an overflow will occur.
While enabling LFS is clearly a nicer solution, it's often difficult
to turn on in practice globally as many widely distributed packages
don't work with LFS on.
Other storage systems have their own workarounds, with SCSI making
multiple device majors and MMC having a config option for the number
of partitions per device. A completely dynamic minor numbering is
simpler than these. It is unlikely that anyone is depending on a
static minor number since the major is dynamic anyway. In addition,
ubiblock is still relatively new, so now is the time to make such
changes.

Block drivers are responsible for calling flush_dcache_page() on each
BIO request. This operation keeps the I$ coherent with the D$ on
architectures that don't have hardware coherency support. Without this
flush, random crashes are seen when executing user programs from an ext4
filesystem backed by a ubiblock device.
This patch is based on the change implemented in commit 2d4dc890b5
("block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a
request's pages").
Fixes: 9d54c8a33e ("UBI: R/O block driver on top of UBI volumes")

Emulate random power cuts by switching device to ro after a number of
writes to allow simple power cut testing with nand-sim.
Maximum and minimum number of successful writes before power cut and
what kind of writes (EC header, VID header or none) to interrupt

If we encounter an uncorrectable ECC error while scanning for the fastmap
UBI must not fail hard. Instead fall back to scanning mode.

This function was added to fastmap in a very early stage
to have paranoid assertions.
With the current fastmap implementation this assert will never
trigger as fastmap PEBs are not seen by the WL sub-system.
Remove it to save us some CPU cycles.
