Merge tag 'for-linus-20170713' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-mtd
Pull MTD updates from Brian Norris:
"General updates:
- Cleanups and additional flash support for "dataflash" driver
- new driver for mchp23k256 SPI SRAM device
- improve handling of MTDs without eraseblocks (i.e., MTD_NO_ERASE)
- refactor and improve "sub-partition" handling with TRX partition
parser; partitions can now be created as sub-partitions of another
partition
SPINOR updates, from Cyrille Pitchen and Marek Vasut:
- introduce support to the SPI 1-2-2 and 1-4-4 protocols.
- introduce support to the Double Data Rate (DDR) mode.
- introduce support to the Octo SPI protocols.
- add support to new memory parts for Spansion, Macronix and Winbond.
- add fixes for the Aspeed, STM32 and Cadence QSPI controler drivers.
- clean up the st_spi_fsm driver.
NAND updates, from Boris Brezillon:
- addition of on-die ECC support to Micron driver
- addition of helpers to help drivers choose most appropriate ECC
settings
- deletion of dead-code (cached programming and ->errstat() hook)
- make sure drivers that do not support the SET/GET FEATURES command
return ENOTSUPP use a dummy ->set/get_features implementation
returning -ENOTSUPP (required for Micron on-die ECC)
- change the semantic of ecc->write_page() for drivers setting the
NAND_ECC_CUSTOM_PAGE_ACCESS flag
- support exiting 'GET STATUS' command in default ->cmdfunc()
implementations
- change the prototype of ->setup_data_interface()
A bunch of driver related changes:
- various cleanup, fixes and improvements of the MTK driver
- OMAP DT bindings fixes
- support for ->setup_data_interface() in the fsmc driver
- support for imx7 in the gpmi driver
- finalization of the denali driver rework (thanks to Masahiro for
the work he's done on this driver)
- fix "bitflips in erased pages" handling in the ifc driver
- addition of PM ops and dynamic timing configuration to the atmel
driver"
