The function _tries_ to support short reads but doesn't adjust the
pointer into the buffer. If a short read happens, we scrambles the
flash contents. Interrupted reads aren't handled. Short or
interrupted writes aren't handled at all. Either a write succeeds
writing the entire buffer or the function gives up.
During an attempt at fixing it, it was discovered, that no mtd-utils
program uses this function. Furthermore, its highly specific nature
makes it more of a "feature looking for use case".

To support the MEMWRITE ioctl, we will need a different sort of libmtd
interface for writing to flash. We will expand mtd_write to include more
functionality; for now, we just change the function definition and
description as we begin to add the actual functionality.

This patch first of all, re-names 'mtd_islocked()' into 'mtd_is_locked()' since
this seems to be the name Mike wanted, and it looks a bit nicer.
This patch also makes 'mtd_is_locked()' print an error message if it fails. I'm
not sure if it is good idea for a library to do so, but all functions do this,
so it certainly _not_ a good idea to be inconsistent.
However, for the special case, when the the "is locked" ioctl is not supported
or is not valid for this device, we do not print an error message and return
ENOTSUPP error code.
Thus, the user can distinguish between real errors and non-fatal "not
supported" cases.

This extends the libmtd with the helper functions:
mtd_regioninfo: interface to MEMGETREGIONINFO
mtd_islocked: interface to MEMISLOCKED
Users of these functions will follow shortly ...

This patch is based on Kevin Cernekee's patch posted to the MTD mailing
list. It adds 'mtd_read_oob()' and 'mtd_write_oob()' interfaces support.
The interfaces use MEMREADOOB64/MEMWRITEOOB64 MTD ioctls if possible, and
fall-back to MEMREADOOB/MEMWRITEOOB if the 64-bit versions are not supported.
The information about ioctls support is then cashed in 'offs64_ioctls'
libmtd flag.

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.

Source files for libmtd, crc32, and fec are scattered throughout the
tree. Move them to a central location so they can be built into a
common "libmtd.a" library used by all mtd-utils programs.
This patch only renames/deletes files and does not change the content.
Also modify the build system and source code so that libmtd.a can be built
from a "common" location (lib/). Statically link all utilities at the top
level with libmtd.a . Minor changes to mkfs.ubifs to allow using the common
crc32 implementation.
