[PATCHv6] UBI: new module ubiblk: block layer on top of UBI

ubiblk is a read-only block layer on top of UBI. It presents UBI volumes as
read-only block devices (named ubiblkX_Y, where X is the UBI device number
and Y the Volume ID).
It is used by putting a block filesystem image on a UBI volume, creating the
corresponding ubiblk device and then mounting it.
It uses the UBI API to register to UBI notifications and to read from the
volumes. It also creates a ubiblk_ctrl device node that simply receives ioctl
from a userspace tool for creating/removing ubiblk devices.
Some code is taken from mtd_blkdevs and gluebi. Some code for the ioctl part is
also inspired from ubi's core.
Advantages of ubiblk over gluebi+mtdblock_ro:
* Simpler architecture
* The numbering of devices is much easier with ubiblk than with
gluebi+mtdblock_ro. With gluebi+mtdblock_ro, you get one additional MTD
device for each UBI volume, so the number of MTD devices grows quite a lot
and is a bit difficult to understand. For example, mtdblock[0-4] might be
your real MTD partitions, while mtdblock[5-9] might be your UBI volumes.
It also means that if a new real MTD partition is added, the index of all the
MTD devices exposing UBI volumes will be shifted by one, which is a bit
confusing/annoying.
As well, if you add an UBI volume, the mtdblock devices that are emulated on
top of volumes that come after this new one will have their ID incremented.
* ubiblk devices are created on a 'on-demand' basis, which avoids wasting
resources.
* It is also possible to specify a "volume" parameter in order to create a
ubiblk device at init time. This makes possible to put a rootfs on a ubiblk
device.
* The performance appears to be slightly better with ubiblk than
gluebi+mtdblock_ro, according to our benchmarks (see
http://elinux.org/Flash_Filesystem_Benchmarks_2.6.39)

changelog since v5:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Use list_for_each_entry instead of list_for_each
* Add a "volume" parameter for creating a device at init time. It allows to
put a rootfs on the volume. Format: volume=<ubi_num>:<vol_id>
* Locking: remove useless locks and add necessary new locks
* Remove the CONFIG_COMPAT code
* Don't walk the error path if register_blkdev returns 0
* WARN when a ubiblk device still has an open descriptor at exit time (happens
with rmmod -f).
* Use temporary variables for readability
* Add dynamic debug regarding refcounting
* Remove a useless check in ubiblk_create (the test consisted in opening the
proxified volume)
* In ubiblk_create(), directly use vi (passed as argument) instead of dev->vi
* No need to remove the devices from the linked list at exit time: it doesn't
free any memory
* Add padding in the ioctl data structure
* remove a useless kfree(dev->vi) in ubiblk_remove: the refcounting assures
that it has been freed before (in ubiblk_release). Same in exit.
@Artem regarding ubiblk_release:
it is only called when the device is closed (eg, unmounted), not when it is
removed (eg the volume disappears or the user send an ioctl to remove it). The
function responsible for removing a device (and thus removing it from the linked
list) is ubiblk_remove.
