Changes from v1:
* Fixed ubiblock_resize so it returns something. I've kept a ubi_warn
message in ubiblock_resize, because otherwise the failure is not reported
to the user in any way.
Thanks for the kbuild-robot for reporting this!
Here's the v1 cover letter:
This is a re-spin of Richard's work [1]. I've added a patch for some minor
clean-up, so the large volume fix is a less intrusive one.
The proposed returned value E2BIG has been changed for EFBIG, which results
in a slightly more accurate error. Also, the user messages have been removed
entirely; returning an error seems enough.
This bug was reported on #mtd IRC. I don't have to reporter name to give proper
credit. It should be applied as a fix for v3.15.
Richard: Thanks a lot for hunting this down, and feel free to disagree about
my changes.
