* kernel: backport 2 mtd partitioning fixesRafał Miłecki2018-12-031-3/+3
| | | | | | This improves handling of subpartitions. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: deprecate support for the generic "linux,part-probe" DT bindingRafał Miłecki2018-11-091-6/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | It has been rejected upstream and instead a nice/more generic solution has been implemented. It's possible now to describe partitions format using "compatible" DT string. No OpenWrt target uses "linux,part-probe" anymore, leave it only in case some forks need it. It will be dropped with support for new kernels. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: backport mtd support for subpartitions in DTRafał Miłecki2018-07-271-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a new & warm feature that allows nesting partiitons in DT and mixing their types (e.g. static vs. dynamic). It's very useful for boards that have most partitions static but some of them require extra parsing (e.g. a "firmware" partition). It's required to successfully backport support for new devices using that new syntax in their DT files. Since brcm63xx has a custom alternative patch the upstream one is being reverted for it. The plan is to make brcm63xx use the upstream implementation. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>

* kernel: use V10 of mtd patchset adding support for "compatible" stringRafał Miłecki2018-03-141-0/+161
In the commit bde5e7a632ef0 ("kernel: backport mtd implementation for "compatible" in "partitions" subnode") patches that got accepted into l2-mtd.git were backported to the kernels 4.9 and 4.14. Unfortunately there was a regression report, patches were dropped and never reached 4.16. This commit replaces these pseudo-backports with the latest version that includes regression fix and futher changes that were requested. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
