The following commit changes the function used to copy from/to
the hardware buffer to memcpy_[from|to]io. This does not work
since the hardware cannot handle the byte accesses used by these
functions. Instead of reverting this patch introduce 32bit
correspondents of these functions.

Could you please take a look at the checkpatch.pl updates?

This makes me wonder a bit, I basically copied the prototype from
the _memcpy_*_io template from arch/arm/kernel/io.c. Should they
be wrong?
otoh I also wondered why there were volatiles in arch/arm/kernel/io.c
in the first place ;)

Oops, sorry Sascha.  This was compile-tested only, but I should have ensured
strength was set before call to nand_scan_tail().

Thanks,
Mike

Pushed this one to l2-mtd.git as well, thanks!

I don't know about the sparse problems this introduces, but without this
patch the mxc-nand driver is broken, so it should really go in before
3.5.

Best regards

The problems, AFAIU, are that you cannot directly dereference __iomem
pointers, you always need to use helpers like 'readl()'. This patch
introduces the following warnings:

The "volitile" should be also removed.

Did you see that Sascha posted a v2?

Well, this is arch-specific code. In there we may make various
assumptions about CPU not doing re-ordering. You are changing generic
code, you should not do assumptions like this.

How about adding these functions to arch/arm/kernel/io.c instead?

Not sure, probably in that file we assume that the memory is
strongly-ordered.
