[Stanley.Miao]

During some BSP development process, I found some tools in mtd-utils
contain legacy interfaces and it is not suitable with the current linux
kernel. I post my patches here in case somebody else need them.

[PATCH 1/5] clean up the legacy interfaces in nandwrite.c

[Stanley.Miao]

The ioctl command "MEMSETOOBSEL" doesn't exist in the current linux kernel
anymore, and the arguments "forcelegacy", "jffs2", "yaffs", "noecc" are not
suitable with the current linux kernel, so clean them up.

Although the ioctl comand "MEMGETOOBSEL" still exist in the current linux
kernel, it is not suitable with some platforms with the NAND ECC data longer
than 32 bytes, so replace it with the new command "ECCGETLAYOUT"

[PATCH 3/5] Fix the bug of writing a yaffs2 image to NAND

[Stanley.Miao]

The tool mkyaffs2image doesn't know the oob layout of a NAND flash, so it
puts the yaffs2 tags at the offset 0 of oob area. When nandwrite writes the
image into NAND flash, it should put the yaffs2 tags at the right position
according to the NAND oob layout.

these are good, but i think people might want to keep support for
older kernels around.  so you'd have the code try the newer ioctls
first and if those fail, fall back to the old ones.

Yeah, we should keep it compatible ASAP. But in the conflict occasion, I 
think, the
new kernel should get the higher priorities than the older kernel. The 
people who
use the old kernels can use the old version mtd-utils(not very old, 
1.3.1 or earlier).

Fix mtd-utils bugs

[Stanley.Miao]

(Re-send it because the previous one don't have a subject.)

During some BSP development process, I found some tools in mtd-utils
contain legacy interfaces and it is not suitable with the current linux
kernel. I post my patches here in case somebody else need them.

[PATCH 1/5] clean up the legacy interfaces in nandwrite.c

[Stanley.Miao]

The ioctl command "MEMSETOOBSEL" doesn't exist in the current linux kernel
anymore, and the arguments "forcelegacy", "jffs2", "yaffs", "noecc" are not
suitable with the current linux kernel, so clean them up.

Although the ioctl comand "MEMGETOOBSEL" still exist in the current linux
kernel, it is not suitable with some platforms with the NAND ECC data longer
than 32 bytes, so replace it with the new command "ECCGETLAYOUT"
