Linus Torvalds ac53b2e053 MTD updates for v4.5:
Generic MTD
 
  * populate the MTD device 'of_node' field (and get a proper 'of_node' symlink
    in sysfs)
    - This yielded some new helper functions, and changes across a variety of
      drivers
 
  * partitioning cleanups, to prepare for better device-tree based partitioning
    in the future
    - Eliminate a lot of boilerplate for drivers that want to use OF-based
      partition parsing
    - The DT bindings for this didn't settle yet, so most non-cleanup portions
      are deferred for a future release
 
 NAND
 
  * embed a struct mtd_info inside struct nand_chip
    - This is really long overdue; too many drivers have to do the same silly
      boilerplate to allocate and link up two "independent" structs, when in
      fact, everyone is assuming there is an exact 1:1 relationship between a
      NAND chips struct and its underlying MTD. This aids improved helpers and
      should make certain abstractions easier in the future.
    - Also causes a lot of churn, helped along by some automated code
      transformations
 
  * add more core support for detecting (and "correcting") bitflips in erased
    pages; requires opt-in by drivers, but at least we kill a few bad
    implementations and hopefully stave off future ones
 
  * pxa3xx_nand: cleanups, a few fixes, and PM improvements
 
  * new JZ4780 NAND driver
 
 SPI NOR
 
  * provide default erase function, for controllers that just want to send the
    SECTOR_ERASE command directly
 
  * fix some module auto-loading issues with device tree ("jedec,spi-nor")
 
  * error handling fixes
 
  * new Mediatek QSPI flash driver
 
 Other
 
  * cfi: force valid geometry Kconfig (finally!)
    - this one used to trip up randconfigs occasionally, since bots aren't
      deterred by big scary "advanced configuration" menus
 
 More? Probably. See the commit logs.
