Kevin, here is a patch which adds MEMERASE64 support. I did not want to
add the flag to 'struct mtd_dev_info', because I do not think it should
be visible to users. So I put it to libmtd descriptor, but this means
that now we have to pass it to 'mtd_erase()'.

I also added error messages to 'mtd_erase()', to be consistent with
other functions. I did not add OOB functions. If this patch is OK, I can
push it.

Subject: [PATCH] libmtd: support MEMERASE64

This patch is base on Kevin Cernekee's patch posted to the MTD mailing
list. It adds MEMERASE64 support to the 'mtd_erase()' call. Now it
first tries to use MEMERASE64, and if that is not supported, falls
back to the old MEMERASE ioctl.

This patch also introduces an 'offs64_ioctl' flag to the libmtd
descriptor. However, we cannot initialize it in 'libmtd_open()',
because we need an MTD device node, which we do not have in
'libmtd_open()'. Thus, we firs mark this flag as "uninitialized",
and at the first invocation of 'mtd_erase()' we initialize it.

This also means that we have to pass the limbtd descriptor to
'mtd_erase()', to save the flag value. This, in turn, requires
tweaking 'mtd_erase()' users.

This is not very nice, but good enough so far.
