Linus Torvalds 4dbf09fea6 This pull request contains the following changes for MTD:
MTD core changes:
 - New AFS partition parser
 - Update MAINTAINERS entry
 - Use of fall-throughs markers
 
 NAND core changes:
 - Support having the bad block markers in either the first, second or
   last page of a block. The combination of all three location is now
   possible.
 - Constification of NAND_OP_PARSER(_PATTERN) elements.
 - Generic NAND DT bindings changed to yaml format (can be used to
   check the proposed bindings. First platform to be fully supported:
   sunxi.
 - Stopped using several legacy hooks.
 - Preparation to use the generic NAND layer with the addition of
   several helpers and the removal of the struct nand_chip from generic
   functions.
 - Kconfig cleanup to prepare the introduction of external ECC engines
   support.
 - Fallthrough comments.
 - Introduction of the SPI-mem dirmap API for SPI-NAND devices.
 
 Raw NAND controller drivers changes:
 - nandsim:
   * Switch to ->exec-op().
 - meson:
   * Misc cleanups and fixes.
   * New OOB layout.
 - Sunxi:
   * A23/A33 NAND DMA support.
 - Ingenic:
   * Full reorganization and cleanup.
   * Clear separation between NAND controller and ECC engine.
   * Support JZ4740 an JZ4725B.
 - Denali:
   * Clear controller/chip separation.
   * ->exec_op() migration.
   * Various cleanups.
 - fsl_elbc:
   * Enable software ECC support.
 - Atmel:
   * Sam9x60 support.
 - GPMI:
   * Introduce the GPMI_IS_MXS() macro.
 - Various trivial/spelling/coding style fixes.
 
 SPI NOR core changes:
 - Print all JEDEC ID bytes on error
 - Fix comment of spi_nor_find_best_erase_type()
 - Add region locking flags for s25fl512s

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
