    UBI: make ubi-header.h local
    
    The new trend in linux is not to store headers which define
    on-media format in the include/ directory, but instead, store
    them locally. This is because these headers "do not define any
    kernel<->userspace interface".
    
    Do so for UBI as well.

+ * @padding1: reserved for future, zeroes
+ * @sqnum: sequence number
+ * @padding2: reserved for future, zeroes
+ * @hdr_crc: volume identifier header CRC checksum
+ *
+ * The @sqnum is the value of the global sequence counter at the time when this
+ * VID header was created. The global sequence counter is incremented each time
+ * UBI writes a new VID header to the flash, i.e. when it maps a logical
+ * eraseblock to a new physical eraseblock. The global sequence counter is an
+ * unsigned 64-bit integer and we assume it never overflows. The @sqnum
+ * (sequence number) is used to distinguish between older and newer versions of
+ * logical eraseblocks.
+ *
+ * There are 2 situations when there may be more then one physical eraseblock
+ * corresponding to the same logical eraseblock, i.e., having the same @vol_id
+ * and @lnum values in the volume identifier header. Suppose we have a logical
+ * eraseblock L and it is mapped to the physical eraseblock P.
+ *
+ * 1. Because UBI may erase physical eraseblocks asynchronously, the following
+ * situation is possible: L is asynchronously erased, so P is scheduled for
+ * erasure, then L is written to,i.e. mapped to another physical eraseblock P1,
+ * so P1 is written to, then an unclean reboot happens. Result - there are 2
+ * physical eraseblocks P and P1 corresponding to the same logical eraseblock
+ * L. But P1 has greater sequence number, so UBI picks P1 when it attaches the
+ * flash.
+ *
+ * 2. From time to time UBI moves logical eraseblocks to other physical
+ * eraseblocks for wear-leveling reasons. If, for example, UBI moves L from P
+ * to P1, and an unclean reboot happens before P is physically erased, there
+ * are two physical eraseblocks P and P1 corresponding to L and UBI has to
+ * select one of them when the flash is attached. The @sqnum field says which
+ * PEB is the original (obviously P will have lower @sqnum) and the copy. But
+ * it is not enough to select the physical eraseblock with the higher sequence
+ * number, because the unclean reboot could have happen in the middle of the
+ * copying process, so the data in P is corrupted. It is also not enough to
+ * just select the physical eraseblock with lower sequence number, because the
+ * data there may be old (consider a case if more data was added to P1 after
+ * the copying). Moreover, the unclean reboot may happen when the erasure of P
+ * was just started, so it result in unstable P, which is "mostly" OK, but
+ * still has unstable bits.
+ *
+ * UBI uses the @copy_flag field to indicate that this logical eraseblock is a
+ * copy. UBI also calculates data CRC when the data is moved and stores it at
+ * the @data_crc field of the copy (P1). So when UBI needs to pick one physical
+ * eraseblock of two (P or P1), the @copy_flag of the newer one (P1) is
+ * examined. If it is cleared, the situation* is simple and the newer one is
+ * picked. If it is set, the data CRC of the copy (P1) is examined. If the CRC
+ * checksum is correct, this physical eraseblock is selected (P1). Otherwise
+ * the older one (P) is selected.
+ *
+ * Note, there is an obsolete @leb_ver field which was used instead of @sqnum
+ * in the past. But it is not used anymore and we keep it in order to be able
+ * to deal with old UBI images. It will be removed at some point.
+ *
+ * There are 2 sorts of volumes in UBI: user volumes and internal volumes.
+ * Internal volumes are not seen from outside and are used for various internal
+ * UBI purposes. In this implementation there is only one internal volume - the
+ * layout volume. Internal volumes are the main mechanism of UBI extensions.
+ * For example, in future one may introduce a journal internal volume. Internal
+ * volumes have their own reserved range of IDs.
+ *
+ * The @compat field is only used for internal volumes and contains the "degree
+ * of their compatibility". It is always zero for user volumes. This field
+ * provides a mechanism to introduce UBI extensions and to be still compatible
+ * with older UBI binaries. For example, if someone introduced a journal in
+ * future, he would probably use %UBI_COMPAT_DELETE compatibility for the
+ * journal volume.  And in this case, older UBI binaries, which know nothing
+ * about the journal volume, would just delete this volume and work perfectly
+ * fine. This is similar to what Ext2fs does when it is fed by an Ext3fs image
+ * - it just ignores the Ext3fs journal.
+ *
+ * The @data_crc field contains the CRC checksum of the contents of the logical
+ * eraseblock if this is a static volume. In case of dynamic volumes, it does
+ * not contain the CRC checksum as a rule. The only exception is when the
+ * data of the physical eraseblock was moved by the wear-leveling unit, then
+ * the wear-leveling unit calculates the data CRC and stores it in the
+ * @data_crc field. And of course, the @copy_flag is %in this case.
+ *
+ * The @data_size field is used only for static volumes because UBI has to know
+ * how many bytes of data are stored in this eraseblock. For dynamic volumes,
+ * this field usually contains zero. The only exception is when the data of the
+ * physical eraseblock was moved to another physical eraseblock for
+ * wear-leveling reasons. In this case, UBI calculates CRC checksum of the
+ * contents and uses both @data_crc and @data_size fields. In this case, the
+ * @data_size field contains data size.
+ *
+ * The @used_ebs field is used only for static volumes and indicates how many
+ * eraseblocks the data of the volume takes. For dynamic volumes this field is
+ * not used and always contains zero.
+ *
+ * The @data_pad is calculated when volumes are created using the alignment
+ * parameter. So, effectively, the @data_pad field reduces the size of logical
+ * eraseblocks of this volume. This is very handy when one uses block-oriented
+ * software (say, cramfs) on top of the UBI volume.

- * struct ubi_vid_hdr - on-flash UBI volume identifier header.
- * @magic: volume identifier header magic number (%UBI_VID_HDR_MAGIC)
- * @version: UBI implementation version which is supposed to accept this UBI
- * image (%UBI_VERSION)
- * @vol_type: volume type (%UBI_VID_DYNAMIC or %UBI_VID_STATIC)
- * @copy_flag: if this logical eraseblock was copied from another physical
- * eraseblock (for wear-leveling reasons)
- * @compat: compatibility of this volume (%0, %UBI_COMPAT_DELETE,
- * %UBI_COMPAT_IGNORE, %UBI_COMPAT_PRESERVE, or %UBI_COMPAT_REJECT)
- * @vol_id: ID of this volume
- * @lnum: logical eraseblock number
- * @leb_ver: version of this logical eraseblock (IMPORTANT: obsolete, to be
- * removed, kept only for not breaking older UBI users)
- * @data_size: how many bytes of data this logical eraseblock contains
- * @used_ebs: total number of used logical eraseblocks in this volume
- * @data_pad: how many bytes at the end of this physical eraseblock are not
- * used
- * @data_crc: CRC checksum of the data stored in this logical eraseblock
- * @padding1: reserved for future, zeroes
- * @sqnum: sequence number
- * @padding2: reserved for future, zeroes
- * @hdr_crc: volume identifier header CRC checksum
- *
- * The @sqnum is the value of the global sequence counter at the time when this
- * VID header was created. The global sequence counter is incremented each time
- * UBI writes a new VID header to the flash, i.e. when it maps a logical
- * eraseblock to a new physical eraseblock. The global sequence counter is an
- * unsigned 64-bit integer and we assume it never overflows. The @sqnum
- * (sequence number) is used to distinguish between older and newer versions of
- * logical eraseblocks.
- *
- * There are 2 situations when there may be more then one physical eraseblock
- * corresponding to the same logical eraseblock, i.e., having the same @vol_id
- * and @lnum values in the volume identifier header. Suppose we have a logical
- * eraseblock L and it is mapped to the physical eraseblock P.
- *
- * 1. Because UBI may erase physical eraseblocks asynchronously, the following
- * situation is possible: L is asynchronously erased, so P is scheduled for
- * erasure, then L is written to,i.e. mapped to another physical eraseblock P1,
- * so P1 is written to, then an unclean reboot happens. Result - there are 2
- * physical eraseblocks P and P1 corresponding to the same logical eraseblock
- * L. But P1 has greater sequence number, so UBI picks P1 when it attaches the
- * flash.
- *
- * 2. From time to time UBI moves logical eraseblocks to other physical
- * eraseblocks for wear-leveling reasons. If, for example, UBI moves L from P
- * to P1, and an unclean reboot happens before P is physically erased, there
- * are two physical eraseblocks P and P1 corresponding to L and UBI has to
- * select one of them when the flash is attached. The @sqnum field says which
- * PEB is the original (obviously P will have lower @sqnum) and the copy. But
- * it is not enough to select the physical eraseblock with the higher sequence
- * number, because the unclean reboot could have happen in the middle of the
- * copying process, so the data in P is corrupted. It is also not enough to
- * just select the physical eraseblock with lower sequence number, because the
- * data there may be old (consider a case if more data was added to P1 after
- * the copying). Moreover, the unclean reboot may happen when the erasure of P
- * was just started, so it result in unstable P, which is "mostly" OK, but
- * still has unstable bits.
- *
- * UBI uses the @copy_flag field to indicate that this logical eraseblock is a
- * copy. UBI also calculates data CRC when the data is moved and stores it at
- * the @data_crc field of the copy (P1). So when UBI needs to pick one physical
- * eraseblock of two (P or P1), the @copy_flag of the newer one (P1) is
- * examined. If it is cleared, the situation* is simple and the newer one is
- * picked. If it is set, the data CRC of the copy (P1) is examined. If the CRC
- * checksum is correct, this physical eraseblock is selected (P1). Otherwise
- * the older one (P) is selected.
- *
- * Note, there is an obsolete @leb_ver field which was used instead of @sqnum
- * in the past. But it is not used anymore and we keep it in order to be able
- * to deal with old UBI images. It will be removed at some point.
- *
- * There are 2 sorts of volumes in UBI: user volumes and internal volumes.
- * Internal volumes are not seen from outside and are used for various internal
- * UBI purposes. In this implementation there is only one internal volume - the
- * layout volume. Internal volumes are the main mechanism of UBI extensions.
- * For example, in future one may introduce a journal internal volume. Internal
- * volumes have their own reserved range of IDs.
- *
- * The @compat field is only used for internal volumes and contains the "degree
- * of their compatibility". It is always zero for user volumes. This field
- * provides a mechanism to introduce UBI extensions and to be still compatible
- * with older UBI binaries. For example, if someone introduced a journal in
- * future, he would probably use %UBI_COMPAT_DELETE compatibility for the
- * journal volume.  And in this case, older UBI binaries, which know nothing
- * about the journal volume, would just delete this volume and work perfectly
- * fine. This is similar to what Ext2fs does when it is fed by an Ext3fs image
- * - it just ignores the Ext3fs journal.
- *
- * The @data_crc field contains the CRC checksum of the contents of the logical
- * eraseblock if this is a static volume. In case of dynamic volumes, it does
- * not contain the CRC checksum as a rule. The only exception is when the
- * data of the physical eraseblock was moved by the wear-leveling unit, then
- * the wear-leveling unit calculates the data CRC and stores it in the
- * @data_crc field. And of course, the @copy_flag is %in this case.
- *
- * The @data_size field is used only for static volumes because UBI has to know
- * how many bytes of data are stored in this eraseblock. For dynamic volumes,
- * this field usually contains zero. The only exception is when the data of the
- * physical eraseblock was moved to another physical eraseblock for
- * wear-leveling reasons. In this case, UBI calculates CRC checksum of the
- * contents and uses both @data_crc and @data_size fields. In this case, the
- * @data_size field contains data size.
- *
- * The @used_ebs field is used only for static volumes and indicates how many
- * eraseblocks the data of the volume takes. For dynamic volumes this field is
- * not used and always contains zero.
- *
- * The @data_pad is calculated when volumes are created using the alignment
- * parameter. So, effectively, the @data_pad field reduces the size of logical
- * eraseblocks of this volume. This is very handy when one uses block-oriented
- * software (say, cramfs) on top of the UBI volume.

- * @crc: a CRC32 checksum of the record
- *
- * The volume table records are stored in the volume table, which is stored in
- * the layout volume. The layout volume consists of 2 logical eraseblock, each
- * of which contains a copy of the volume table (i.e., the volume table is
- * duplicated). The volume table is an array of &struct ubi_vtbl_record
- * objects indexed by the volume ID.
- *
- * If the size of the logical eraseblock is large enough to fit
- * %UBI_MAX_VOLUMES records, the volume table contains %UBI_MAX_VOLUMES

- * logical eraseblock divided by sizeof(struct ubi_vtbl_record)).
- *
- * The @upd_marker flag is used to implement volume update. It is set to %1
- * before update and set to %0 after the update. So if the update operation was
- * interrupted, UBI knows that the volume is corrupted.
- *
- * The @alignment field is specified when the volume is created and cannot be
- * later changed. It may be useful, for example, when a block-oriented file
- * system works on top of UBI. The @data_pad field is calculated using the
- * logical eraseblock size and @alignment. The alignment must be multiple to the
- * minimal flash I/O unit. If @alignment is 1, all the available space of
- * the physical eraseblocks is used.
- *
- * Empty records contain all zeroes and the CRC checksum of those zeroes.
