	Implement the 'legacy_dev_present()' function which will check whether an MTD device is present by scanning the /proc/mtd file when the MTD subsystem does not support sysfs (the case for pre-2.6.30 kernels). This patch also moves the 'mtd_dev_present()' function to a slightly more logical position. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com>
2010-07-26	libmtd: support MEMERASE64	Artem Bityutskiy
	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. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-07-13	mtd-utils: move libmtd source files to lib/ subdirectory	Kevin Cernekee
	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.
