2017-11-02	Add no-return attribute to usage() style functions	David Oberhollenzer
	A common pattern in command line processing is having a usage() function that prints out how to use the command line options and then terminates. The function is typically used inside a switch block for command line options like `-h' or unknown options. In a lot of places, the break keyword is omitted, because the function exits anyway. However, this triggers gcc warnings about implicit fall-through. Rather than adding a phony "/* fall-through */" this patch flags the usage() style function with a gcc attribute, indicating that they do not return and removes further superfluous break statements.

2016-11-17	mtd-utils: Add flash torture test utility	David Oberhollenzer
	Basically a user space port of the mtd torture test kernel module. In addition to the block offset and count module parameters, the utility supports a block stride and can restore the block contents after test. In contrast to the kernel module, the torture test is implemented by the libmtd mtd_toruture function and thus doesn't allow for similarly fine grained options on diagnostics.
