![]() First cycle with Boris as NAND maintainer! Many (most) bullets stolen from him. Generic: * Migrated NAND LED trigger to be a generic MTD trigger NAND: * Introduction of the "ECC algorithm" concept, to avoid overloading the ECC mode field too much more * Replaced the nand_ecclayout infrastructure with something a little more flexible (finally!) and future proof * Rework of the OMAP GPMC and NAND drivers; the TI folks pulled some of this into their own tree as well * Prepare the sunxi NAND driver to receive DMA support * Handle bitflips in erased pages on GPMI revisions that do not support this in hardware. SPI NOR: * Start using the spi_flash_read() API for SPI drivers that support it (i.e., SPI drivers with special memory-mapped flash modes) And other small scattered improvments. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAABAgAGBQJXQ9oUAAoJEFySrpd9RFgttf0P/3oIVCvLHSFIsi7XiUusWJWk Cb+xW3ujFd2kNUqAQGnyvPUGU1amgjAjy2kwMpvpOG07DVgSnxQVGaQLins8Zwpw auWxH8llISmC6UkNsS1jV0d7KzSMCT2Ne+BenRAn68kq3ovXPPB3B19B6dFj8ail s83ajoZhsn1+eyctiKtbhXgZWkJHlRmBeXPKAJcS0lBcSibR+6N+O//JEAMnyYvc 7azuw0KMVwQNnNYFAfd9dilV5juZ9bZptTJYH7XuF+44FhxmSKvTX2a9gmp0C4Bm FszUiPrIWF+t98nSQxxSn/zPlyllFyoisa6F7eGnDHIz+bH0Emf2oVwsSG5ASl42 XTml0kB0jCfuBfgAiyhYU2Uds7rSYs/ZcHr3iPgpUY3Sc3dgoArDdahMJXwqaoa8 UdChu6A+rjhi9PqhzNNVTarbilp3pOVgKAUVEWTdpQ1wGU4c+9SNlTTwhPy4g7RB uKlqbMeiZ/5rPiihaMUNtzxMxSe9OGYW2HVNVExvmlF2Ca42M1xJJBMlAA6IIXyS 35d3Y4F5zPP7U6GCVla06WHkL5ahXJWmI0Xhf+2jCnDMipeAl6eCEiAJY5EmvAnr FTpZ4qkspED69mO8oZW9ORje0n6PCm4XPOi4Vl8kci8tlBsEJMk9jaedWwGlZkRk I5leUP4NEougvuHce2Cn =J6KN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-linus-20160523' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-mtd Pull MTD updates from Brian Norris: "First cycle with Boris as NAND maintainer!

Broadcom introduced new bus as replacement for older SSB. It is based on AMBA, however from programming point of view there is nothing AMBA specific we use. Standard AMBA drivers are platform specific, have hardcoded addresses and use AMBA standard fields like CID and PID. In case of Broadcom's cards every device consists of: 1) Broadcom specific AMBA device. It is put on AMBA bus, but can not be treated as standard AMBA device. Reading it's CID or PID can cause machine lockup. 2) AMBA standard devices called ports or wrappers. They have CIDs (AMBA_CID) and PIDs (0x103BB369), but we do not use that info for anything. One of that devices is used for managing Broadcom specific core. Addresses of AMBA devices are not hardcoded in driver and have to be read from EPROM. In this situation we decided to introduce separated bus. It can contain up to 16 devices identified by Broadcom specific fields: manufacturer, id, revision and class.
