[PATCH v2 0/8] MLC in SLC mode

[Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

This series has been lying for a long time in Boris' tree, it is
clean enough to be upstreamed now.

It basically allows to work "safely" with MLC NANDs, details inside.

I tested it with a C.H.I.P and it looks stable. More extensive testing
is welcome.

Cheers,
Miquèl

Changes in v2:
* Removed unwanted files spotted by Florian.
* Add Richard's Ack on the "relax the no MLC rule" patch.
* Rename MTD_MLC_IN_SLC_MODE into MTD_SLC_ON_MLC_EMULATION.
* Rename the helper mtd_oob_io_slc() into mtd_io_emulated_slc().
* Changed bouncing e-mail address from Boris to his kernel.org.
