Just as Artem suggested:

"Both UBI and JFFS2 are able to read verify what they wrote already.
There are also MTD tests which do this verification. So I think there
is no reason to keep this in the NAND layer, let alone wasting RAM in
the driver to support this feature. Besides, it does not work for sub-pages
and many drivers have it broken. It hurts more than it provides benefits."

So kill MTD_NAND_VERIFY_WRITE entirely.

We are working in the direction of making sure that MTD clients to not
use 'mtd->func' pointers directly. In some places we want to know if
OOB operations are supported by an MTD device. Introduce 'mtd_has_oob()'
helper for these purposes.

This patch is part of a patch-set which changes the MTD interface
from 'mtd->func()' form to 'mtd_func()' form. We need this because
we want to add common code to to all drivers in the mtd core level,
which is impossible with the current interface when MTD clients
call driver functions like 'read()' or 'write()' directly.

At this point we just introduce a new inline wrapper function, but
later some of them are expected to gain more code. E.g., the input
parameters check should be moved to the wrappers rather than be
duplicated at many drivers.

This particular patch introduced the 'mtd_erase()' interface. The
following patches add all the other interfaces one by one.

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_.

Because malloc/kzalloc may fail, we should check kmalloc/kzalloc return value
 in sm_create_sysfs_attributes(), mtd/sm_rtl.c and do error handling.
Meanwhile, we should check sm_create_sysfs_attributes return value.

There are two spellings in use for 'freeze' + 'able' - 'freezable' and
'freezeable'.  The former is the more prominent one.  The latter is
mostly used by workqueue and in a few other odd places.  Unify the
spelling to 'freezable'.

Rename for_each_bit() to for_each_set_bit in the kernel source tree.  To
permit for_each_clear_bit(), should that ever be added.

I'll be sending a patch to Linus this week which removes the temporary
for_each_bit() macro, so this patch will be needed to avoid build
breakage.

The sole purpose of this setting was to avoid a dependency on MTD_NAND. 
Now that we can depend on MTD_NAND_ECC without pulling in all the rest 
of the NAND code, we might as well do so unconditionally.

This implements new readwrite SmartMedia/xd FTL.

mtd driver must have support proper ECC and badblock verification
based on oob parts for 512 bytes nand.

Also mtd driver must define read_oob and write_oob, which are used
to read and write both data and oob together.
