libmtd: support MEMERASE64
This patch is base on Kevin Cernekee's patch posted to the MTD mailing
list. It adds MEMERASE64 support to the 'mtd_erase()' call. Now it
first tries to use MEMERASE64, and if that is not supported, falls
back to the old MEMERASE ioctl.
This patch also introduces an 'offs64_ioctl' flag to the libmtd
descriptor. However, we cannot initialize it in 'libmtd_open()',
because we need an MTD device node, which we do not have in
'libmtd_open()'. Thus, we firs mark this flag as "uninitialized",
and at the first invocation of 'mtd_erase()' we initialize it.
This also means that we have to pass the limbtd descriptor to
'mtd_erase()', to save the flag value. This, in turn, requires
tweaking 'mtd_erase()' users.
This is not very nice, but good enough so far.
