Sorry for the error, as you can see in the original e-mail, I generated
the pull request aginst 'mtd/next' (the branch name), instead of
'mtd/for-5.16', the signed tag with the below description written for
the occasion. I am going to resend the pull-request with these missing
bits.

* Remove obsolete macros only used by the old nand_ecclayout struct
* Don't remove debugfs directory if device is in use
* MAINTAINERS:
  - Add entry for Qualcomm NAND controller driver
  - Update the devicetree documentation path of hyperbus

MTD devices:
* block2mtd:
  - Add support for an optional custom MTD label
  - Minor refactor to avoid hard coded constant
* mtdswap: Remove redundant assignment of pointer eb

CFI:
* Fixup CFI on ixp4xx

Raw NAND controller drivers:
* Arasan:
  - Prevent an unsupported configuration
* Xway, Socrates: plat_nand, Pasemi, Orion, mpc5121, GPIO, Au1550nd, AMS-Delta:

Onenand drivers:
* Samsung: Drop Exynos4 and describe driver in KConfig

Raw NAND chip drivers:
* Hynix: Add support for H27UCG8T2ETR-BC MLC NAND

SPI NOR core:
* Add spi-nor device tree binding under SPI NOR maintainers

SPI NOR manufacturer drivers:
* Enable locking for n25q128a13

I hope you will reconsider this position when I will re-send the
actual pull request with the above text which was missing.

Thanks,
