Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were
approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases.
Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both
Kconfigs and documentation texts.

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.
The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

Commit 90833fdab8 ("[ARM] 4554/1: replace
consistent_sync() with flush_ioremap_region()") introduced a new
"flush_ioremap_region()" function to be used by the MTD mainstone-flash
and lubbock-flash drivers to fix a regression from around 2.6.18.
Those drivers were independently merged into a single driver by Todd
Poynor in commit e644f7d628 ("[MTD] MAPS:
Merge Lubbock and Mainstone drivers into common PXA2xx driver")
Later, those two commits were merged into the main MTD tree by commit
b160292cc2 ("Merge Linux 2.6.23") by David
Woodhouse, but in that merge, the fix to use flush_iomap_region() got
lost (as it was to files that now no longer existed).
This reinstates the fix in the new driver.

When the UBI device is nearly full, i.e. all LEBs are mapped, we have
only one spare LEB left - the one we reserved for WL purposes. Well,
I do not count the LEBs which were reserved for bad PEB handling -
suppose NOR flash for simplicity. If an "atomic LEB change operation"
is run, and the WL unit is moving a LEB, we have no spare LEBs to
finish the operation and fail, which is not good. Moreover, if there
are 2 or more simultanious "atomic LEB change" requests, only one of
them has chances to succeed, the other will fail with -ENOSPC. Not
good either.
This patch does 2 things:
1. Reserves one PEB for the "atomic LEB change" operation.
2. Serealize the operations so that only on of them may run
at a time (by means of a mutex).

Similar reason as in case of the previous patch: it causes
deadlocks if a filesystem with writeback support works on top
of UBI. So pre-allocate needed buffers when attaching MTD device.
We also need mutexes to protect the buffers, but they do not
cause much contantion because they are used in recovery, torture,
and WL copy routines, which are called seldom.

Use GFP_NOFS flag when allocating memory on I/O path, because otherwise
we may deadlock the filesystem which works on top of us. We observed
the deadlocks with UBIFS. Example:
VFS->FS lock a lock->UBI->kmalloc()->VFS writeback->FS locks the same
lock again.

I can't find anything guaranteeing that 'ubi_num' cannot be <0 in
drivers/mtd/ubi/kapi.c::ubi_open_volume(), and in fact the code
even tests for that and errors out if so. Unfortunately the test
for "ubi_num < 0" happens after we've already used 'ubi_num' as
an array index - bad thing to do if it is negative.
This patch moves the test earlier in the function and then moves
the indexing using that variable after the check. A bit safer :-)

This patch make the OneNAND driver much less racy. It fixes
our "onenand_wait: read timeout!" heisenbugs. The reason of
these bugs was that the driver did not lock the chip when
accessing OTP, and it screwed up OneNAND state when the OTP
was read while JFFS2 was doing FS checking.
This patch also fixes other races I spotted:
1. BBT was not protected
2. Access to ecc_stats was not protected
Now the chip is locked when BBT is accessed.
To fix all of these I basically split all interface functions
on 'function()' and 'function_nolock()' parts.
I tested this patch on N800 hardware - it fixes our problems.
But I tested a little different version because our OneNAND
codebase is slightly out-of-date. But it should be OK.
This patch also includes the prin fixes I posted before.

This patch includes a whole batch of smallish cleanups for
drivers/mtd/physmap_of.c.
- A bunch of uneeded #includes are removed
- We switch to the modern linux/of.h etc. in place of
asm/prom.h
- Use some helper macros to avoid some ugly inline #ifdefs
- A few lines of unreachable code are removed
- A number of indentation / line-wrapping fixes
- More consistent use of kernel idioms such as if (!p) instead
of if (p == NULL)
- Clarify some printk()s and other informative strings.
- parse_obsolete_partitions() now returns 0 if no partition
information is found, instead of returning -ENOENT which the caller
had to handle specially.
- (the big one) Despite the name, this driver really has
nothing to do with drivers/mtd/physmap.c. The fact that the flash
chips must be physically direct mapped is a constrant, but doesn't
really say anything about the actual purpose of this driver, which is
to instantiate MTD devices based on information from the device tree.
Therefore the physmap name is replaced everywhere within the file with
"of_flash". The file itself and the Kconfig option is not renamed for
now (so that the diff is actually a diff). That can come later.

Make nandsim use GFP_NOFS when allocating memory, because it might
be used by a file-system (e.g. UBIFS2) which means, if we are short
of memory, we may deadlock. Indee, UBIFS is holding a lock, writes
to the media, reaches this place in NANDsim, kmalloc does not find
the requested amount of RAM, calls memory shrinker, which decides
to writeback inodes, calls FS, and it deadlocks on the lock which
is already being held. Below is the UBIFS backtrace which
