Some NAND controllers are using DMA engine requiring a specific buffer alignment. The core provides no guarantee on the nand_buffers pointers, which forces some drivers to allocate their own buffers and pass the NAND_OWN_BUFFERS flag. Rework the nand_buffers allocation logic to allocate each buffer independently. This should make most NAND controllers/DMA engine happy, and allow us to get rid of these custom buf allocation in NAND controller drivers.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
