[U-Boot] Regression with ubifs initialization

[Andrew Ruder]

Hey all,

It appears that 2014.10 has some issues with UBIFS initialization
(details at bottom).  git-bisect results in one of the following commits
being broken.  Surely it is the mtd one, but its parent commit
(compat.h) does not compile.

[ff94bc40af3] mtd, ubi, ubifs: resync with Linux-3.14
[0c06db59836] lib, linux: move linux specific defines to linux/compat.h

A little background for the errors below.  My MTD table:

device nor0 <0.flash>, # parts = 5
#: name                size            offset          mask_flags
0: uboot               0x00080000      0x00000000      0
1: env                 0x00020000      0x00080000      0
2: env_redund          0x00020000      0x000a0000      0
3: env_factory         0x00020000      0x000c0000      0
4: data                0x00400000      0x000e0000      0

Older (2014.07) U-Boot, I can do something like this:

$ erase nor0,4
