[PATCH 1/5] mtd: do not assume oobsize is power of 2

[Brian Norris]

Previous generations of MTDs all used OOB sizes that were powers of 2,
(e.g., 64, 128). However, newer generations of flash, especially NAND,
use irregular OOB sizes that are not powers of 2 (e.g., 218, 224, 448).
This means we cannot use masks like "mtd->oobsize - 1" to assume that we
will get a proper bitmask for OOB operations.

These masks are really only intended to hide the "page" portion of the
offset, leaving any OOB offset intact, so a masking with the writesize
(which *is* always a power of 2) is valid and makes more sense.

This has been tested for read/write of NAND devices (nanddump/nandwrite)
using nandsim and actual NAND flash.

Changes since v1 as "RFC": instead of dropping the mask, we use
    writesize instead.

Stable: this error actually appeared way back in 2.6.17, but it was
    cut-and-pasted in the 2.6.30-rcX cycle, so it won't apply cleanly.
    Anyway, I don't think we don't maintain -stable that far back.
