+ However, if in the future UBI needs on-flash format changes
+ which cannot be done in a compatible manner, a new format
+ version will be added. So this is a mechanism for possible
+ future backward-compatible (but forward-incompatible)
+ improvements.

+Description:
+ Contains ASCII "0\n" if the update marker is not set for this
+ volume, and "1\n" if it is set. The update marker is set when
+ volume update starts, and cleaned when it ends. So the presence
+ of the update marker indicates that the volume is being updated
+ at the moment of the update was interrupted. The later may be
+ checked using the "corrupted" sysfs file.

+ S3C24XX NAND Support
+ ====================
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+Small Page NAND
+---------------
+
+The driver uses a 512 byte (1 page) ECC code for this setup. The
+ECC code is not directly compatible with the default kernel ECC
+code, so the driver enforces its own OOB layout and ECC parameters
+
+Large Page NAND
+---------------
+
+The driver is capable of handling NAND flash with a 2KiB page
+size, with support for hardware ECC generation and correction.
+
+Unlike the 512byte page mode, the driver generates ECC data for
+each 256 byte block in an 2KiB page. This means that more than
+one error in a page can be rectified. It also means that the
+OOB layout remains the default kernel layout for these flashes.
