Merge tag 'for-linus-20140808' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-mtd
Pull MTD updates from Brian Norris:
"AMD-compatible CFI driver:
- Support OTP programming for Micron M29EW family
- Increase buffer write timeout, according to detected flash
parameter info
NAND
- Add helpers for retrieving ONFI timing modes
- GPMI: provide option to disable bad block marker swapping (required
for Ka-On electronics platforms)
SPI NOR
- EON EN25QH128 support
- Support new Flag Status Register (FSR) on a few Micron flash
Common
- New sysfs entries for bad block and ECC stats
And a few miscellaneous refactorings, cleanups, and driver
improvements"
