SPI NOR core changes: - move all the manufacturer specific quirks/code out of the core, to make the core logic more readable and thus ease maintenance. - move the SFDP logic out of the core, it provides a better separation between the SFDP parsing and core logic. - trim what is exposed in spi-nor.h. The SPI NOR controllers drivers must not be able to use structures that are meant just for the SPI NOR core. - use the spi-mem direct mapping API to let advanced controllers optimize the read/write operations when they support direct mapping. - add generic formula for the Status Register block protection handling. It fixes some long standing locking limitations and eases the addition of the 4bit block protection support. - add block protection support for flashes with 4 block protection bits in the Status Register. SPI NOR controller drivers changes: - the mtk-quadspi driver is replaced by the new spi-mem spi-mtk-nor driver. Merge tag 'mtk-mtd-spi-move' into spi-nor/next to avoid conflicts.
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
