This small series handle 2 problems.
It does try to ""standardize"" the usage of block2mtd module with
MTD OF nodes.
It is very easy to add support for MTD parser by just adding an
OF node to the mtd created for block2mtd.
This apply only if the root block is used for block2mtd to allow
scenario where the full eMMC or an NVME is used for MTD and it doesn't
have any partition table.
To also support NVME, similar to how it's done with eMMC, we introduce
a subnode to the NVME controller that needs to have the "nvme-card"
compatible where a dev can define fixed-paritions for MTD parser usage.
This series also add support for the Airoha partition table where
the last partition is always ART and is placed at the end of the flash.
This require dynamic calculation of the offset as some dedicated
driver for bad block management might be used that reserve some space
at the end of the flash for block accounting.
New aarch64 Airoha SoC make use of this partition table and use block2mtd
for eMMC to treat them as MTD with custom bad block management and block
tracking.
Changes v4:
- Add additional patch for ofpart kmod with of_update_property
not exported
Changes v3:
- Fix compilation error for missing slab.h header
- Add compatible to partitions.yaml
Changes v2:
- Fix typo in DT patch
- Fix compilation error for non-OF platform
- Fix compilation error due to recent changes in block2mtd module
