Subject: [PATCH v8 0/7] mtd: ubi: allow UBI volumes to provide NVMEM

Similar to how MAC addresses and Wi-Fi calibration data would be
stored inside an MTD partition on devices coming with NOR flash, a UBI
volume is used by some vendors in the same way on devices with NAND
flash.

The goal of this series is to support such embedded Linux devices which
got NVMEM bits stored inside a UBI volume.

Representing the UBI volume in the Device Tree and adding a phandle to
be referenced by NVMEM consumers allows such devices to come up with
their correct MAC addresses and device-specific Wi-Fi calibration data
loaded.

In order for NVMEM bits to be available for other drivers, attaching
UBI devices has to be moved from late_initcall (which is too late for
other drivers) to happen earlier. As an alternative to the existing
kernel cmdline parameter the Device Tree property 'compatible =
"linux,ubi";' inside an MTD partition can be used to have that MTD
device attached as UBI device. MTD partitions which serve as UBI
devices may have a "volumes" subnode with volumes, and volumes may
have an "nvmem-layout" object which will trigger the creation of an
emulated NVMEM device on top of the UBI volume.

In this way, other drivers (think: Ethernet, Wi-Fi) can resolve and
acquire NVMEM bits using the usual device tree phandle, just this time
the NVMEM content is read from a UBI volume.

This series is a follow-up and contains most patches of the previous
series "mtd: ubi: behave like a good MTD citizen"[1] which was meant in
preparation for implementing the NVMEM provider.

As lots of time has passed NVMEM-on-UBI is by now already in-use
downstream at OpenWrt to support reading WiFi EEPROMs and MAC
addresses on a bunch of ASUS devices[2], [3] which laudably store all
in UBI. That also exposed a possible issue on 32-bit platforms which
has now been addressed in v8.

[1]: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-mtd/list/?series=353177&state=%2A&archive=both
[2]: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/14676 (merged)
[3]: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/14729 (pending)

Changes since v7:
* use integer types with well-defined size for use with do_div(n, base)
(addresses compiler warning when building on 32-bit platforms)

Changes since v6:
* dt-bindings fixes got squashed into the wrong patch, fix that and
newly introduced YAML white space issues

Changes since v5:
* fix whitespace problems in dt-schema additions

Changes since v4:
* split ubi_open_volume_path() breaking out reusable parts for
new match_volume_desc() function as suggested by Richard Weinberger.
Doing the same for ubi_open_volume_nm() doesn't work as we are working
on struct ubi_volume_info in match_volume_desc() while ubi_open_volume_nm()
is working on struct ubi_volume. That reduces the common part to a string
comparision and length check which doesn't seem worth breaking out of the
existing function.
* drop patches and changes not strictly needed for NVMEM use-case:
- don't handle ubi detach on MTD removal notification. It was not done
until now and the locking hell I was facing when trying to implement
that is non trivial.
- don't relocate the call to ubiblock device creation to the
notification handler
- change ubiblock only as far as needed to handle creation from cmdline
parameter when a volume is added.
* improve commit messages and comments

Changes since v3:
* dt-bindings fixes as requested

Changes since v2:
* include dt-bindings additions

Changes since v1:
* include patch to fix exiting Kconfig formatting issues
* fix typo and indentation in Kconfig

Subject: [PATCH v8 3/7] mtd: ubi: block: use notifier to create ubiblock from parameter

Use UBI_VOLUME_ADDED notification to create ubiblock device specified
on kernel cmdline or module parameter.
This makes thing more simple and has the advantage that ubiblock devices
on volumes which are not present at the time the ubi module is probed
will still be created.

Subject: [PATCH v8 4/7] mtd: ubi: attach from device tree

Introduce device tree compatible 'linux,ubi' and attach compatible MTD
devices using the MTD add notifier. This is needed for a UBI device to
be available early at boot (and not only after late_initcall), so
volumes on them can be used eg. as NVMEM providers for other drivers.

Subject: [PATCH v8 5/7] mtd: ubi: introduce pre-removal notification for UBI volumes

Introduce a new notification type UBI_VOLUME_SHUTDOWN to inform users
that a volume is just about to be removed.
This is needed because users (such as the NVMEM subsystem) expect that
at the time their removal function is called, the parenting device is
still available (for removal of sysfs nodes, for example, in case of
NVMEM which otherwise WARNs on volume removal).

Subject: [PATCH v8 6/7] mtd: ubi: populate ubi volume fwnode

Look for the 'volumes' subnode of an MTD partition attached to a UBI
device and attach matching child nodes to UBI volumes.
This allows UBI volumes to be referenced in device tree, e.g. for use
as NVMEM providers.

Subject: [PATCH v8 7/7] mtd: ubi: provide NVMEM layer over UBI volumes

In an ideal world we would like UBI to be used where ever possible on a
NAND chip. And with UBI support in ARM Trusted Firmware and U-Boot it
is possible to achieve an (almost-)all-UBI flash layout. Hence the need
for a way to also use UBI volumes to store board-level constants, such
as MAC addresses and calibration data of wireless interfaces.

Add UBI volume NVMEM driver module exposing UBI volumes as NVMEM
providers. Allow UBI devices to have a "volumes" firmware subnode with
volumes which may be compatible with "nvmem-cells".
Access to UBI volumes via the NVMEM interface at this point is
read-only, and it is slow, opening and closing the UBI volume for each
access due to limitations of the NVMEM provider API.
