      mtdpart: memory accessor interface for MTD layer · bfa5ecda
      Sudhakar Rajashekhara authored 
      This patch implements memory accessor interface in the MTD
layer which enables the kernel to access flash data.

This patch adds two new members to the mtd_partition structure,
a function handler which will be called during setup of the
partition and an argument to be passed to this setup function.

Example:
+static struct mtd_partition spi_flash_partitions[] = {
+       [0] = {
+               .name       = "U-Boot",
+               .offset     = 0,
+               .size       = SZ_256K,
+               .mask_flags = MTD_WRITEABLE,
+       },
+       [1] = {
+               .name       = "U-Boot Environment",
+               .offset     = MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK,
+               .size       = SZ_64K,
+               .mask_flags = MTD_WRITEABLE,
+       },
+       [2] = {
+               .name       = "Linux",
+               .offset     = MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK,
+               .size       = SZ_7M,
+               .mask_flags = 0,
+       },
+       [3] = {
+               .name       = "MAC Address",
+               .offset     = MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK,
+               .size       = SZ_64K,
+               .mask_flags = 0,
+               .setup      = davinci_get_mac_addr,
+               .context    = (void *)0,
+       },
+};

The davinci_get_mac_addr function reads the MAC address from
offset ZERO of last MTD partition.
