Huang Shijie <shijie8@gmail.com> explains:
Assume we have a 1GiB(8Gib) NAND chip, and we set the partitions
in the command line like this:
#gpmi-nand:100m(boot),100m(kernel),1g(rootfs)
In this case, the partition truncating occurs. The current code will
get the following result:
----------------------------------
root@freescale ~$ cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 06400000 00040000 "boot"
mtd1: 06400000 00040000 "kernel"
----------------------------------
It is obvious that we lost the truncated partition `rootfs` which should
be 824MiB in this case.
Also, forbid 0-sized partitions.

Clean-up the driver a bit to make it easier to read and amend the coding style.
Mostly these are changes like:
if (a)
{
}
=>
if (a) {
}
Some extra blank lines were added.
Indentation was changed to use tabs instead of spaces.

This patch revises and fixes error handling in the command line mtd
partitions parser. Namely:
1. we ignored return code of 'mtdpart_setup_real()'.
2. instead of returning 0 for failure and 1 for success, teach
'mtdpart_setup_real()' to return real error codes.

Encapsulate last MTD partition parser argument into a separate
structure. Currently it holds only 'origin' field for RedBoot parser,
but will be extended in future to contain at least device_node for OF
devices.

Patch for unlocking all Intel flash that has instant locking on power up.
The patch has been tested on Intel M18, P30 and J3D Strata Flash.
1. The automatic unlocking can be disabled for a particular partition
in the map or the command line.
a. For the bit mask in the map it should look like:
.mask_flags = MTD_POWERUP_LOCK,
b. For the command line parsing it should look like:
mtdparts=0x80000(bootloader)lk
2. This will only unlock parts with instant individual block locking.
Intel parts with legacy unlocking will not be unlocked.

Current cmdlinepart.c uses offset value 0 to specify a continuous
partition. This prevents creating a second partition starting at 0.
For example, I can split 4MB device using "mtdparts=id:2M,2M", but I can
not do "mtdparts=id:2M@2M,2M@0" to swap mtd0 and mtd1.
This patch introduces special OFFSET_CONTINUOUS value for a continuous
partition and allows 0 for offset value.
Also this patch replaces 0xffffffff with UINT_MAX for SIZE_REMAINING.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
