This patch teaches 'mtd_sync()' to do nothing when the MTD driver does
not have the '->sync()' method, which allows us to remove all direct
'mtd->sync' accesses.

This patch is part of a patch-set which changes the MTD interface
from 'mtd->func()' form to 'mtd_func()' form. We need this because
we want to add common code to to all drivers in the mtd core level,
which is impossible with the current interface when MTD clients
call driver functions like 'read()' or 'write()' directly.
At this point we just introduce a new inline wrapper function, but
later some of them are expected to gain more code. E.g., the input
parameters check should be moved to the wrappers rather than be
duplicated at many drivers.
This particular patch introduced the 'mtd_erase()' interface. The
following patches add all the other interfaces one by one.

Start moving away from the MTD_DEBUG_LEVEL messages. The dynamic
debugging feature is a generic kernel feature that provides more
flexibility.
(See Documentation/dynamic-debug-howto.txt)
Also fix some punctuation, indentation, and capitalization that went
along with the affected lines.

* Add locking where it was missing.
* Don't do a get_mtd_device in blktrans_open because it would lead to a
deadlock; instead do that in add_mtd_blktrans_dev.
* Only free the mtd_blktrans_dev structure when the last user exits.
* Flush request queue on device removal.
* Track users, and call tr->release in del_mtd_blktrans_dev
Due to that ->open and release aren't called more that once.
Now it is safe to call del_mtd_blktrans_dev while the device is still in use.

We can benefit from knowing that the file system no longer cares about
the contents of certain sectors, by throwing them away immediately and
then never having to garbage collect them, and using the extra free
space to make our operations more efficient. Do so.

Once upon a time, the MTD repository was using CVS.
This patch therefore removes all usages of the no longer updated CVS
keywords from the MTD code.
This also includes code that printed them to the user.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.
To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

This patch does a full cleanup of 'NULL checks before vfree', and a partial
cleanup of calls to kfree for all of drivers/ - the kfree bit is partial in
that I only did the files that also had vfree calls in them. The patch
also gets rid of some redundant (void *) casts of pointers being passed to
[vk]free, and a some tiny whitespace corrections also crept in.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
