Use Joe Perches cvt_fallthrough.pl script to convert

	/* fallthrough */

comments (and its derivatives) into a

	fallthrough;

statement. This automatically drops useless ones.

Do it MTD-wide.

<title>ubi: Free the normal volumes in error paths of ubi_attach_mtd_dev()</title>

<id>fc55dacf7fea793e70c9c75a1acff47a4fb02017</id>
<content type='text'>
The allocated normal volumes saved in ubi-&gt;volumes are not freed
in the error paths in ubi_attach_mtd_dev() and its callees (e.g.
ubi_attach() and ubi_read_volume_table()).

These normal volumes should be freed through kill_volumes() and
vol_release(), but ubi_attach_mtd_dev() may fail before
calling uif_init(), and there will be memory leaks.

So adding a new helper ubi_free_all_volumes() to free the normal
and the internal volumes. And in order to prevent double-free
of volume, reset ubi-&gt;volumes[i] to NULL after freeing.

<title>UBI: introduce the VID buffer concept</title>

Currently, all VID headers are allocated and freed using the
ubi_zalloc_vid_hdr() and ubi_free_vid_hdr() function. These functions
make sure to align allocation on ubi-&gt;vid_hdr_alsize and adjust the
vid_hdr pointer to match the ubi-&gt;vid_hdr_shift requirements.
This works fine, but is a bit convoluted.
Moreover, the future introduction of LEB consolidation (needed to support
MLC/TLC NANDs) will allows a VID buffer to contain more than one VID
header.

Hence the creation of a ubi_vid_io_buf struct to attach extra information
to the VID header.

We currently only store the actual pointer of the underlying buffer, but
will soon add the number of VID headers contained in the buffer.

<title>UBI: move the global ech and vidh variables into struct ubi_attach_info</title>

Even if it works fine with those global variables, attaching the
temporary ech and vidh objects used during UBI scan to the
ubi_attach_info object sounds like a more future-proof option.

For example, attaching several UBI devices in parallel is prevented by
this use of global variable. And also because global variables should
be avoided in general.

case we ever want to change the allocation system), but also helps us
factorize the initialization of some common fields (ec and pnum).

Those functions are pretty much doing the same thing, except
ubi_remove_av() is putting the aeb elements attached to the volume into
the ai-&gt;erase list and the destroy_av() is freeing them.

Rework destroy_av() to handle both cases.

add_fastmap() is passed a ubi_vid_hdr pointer in argument, but is
referencing the global vidh pointer.
Even if this is correct from a functional point of view (vidh and vid_hdr
point to the same object), it is confusing.
