remove the mg_disk driver
This drivers was added in 2008, but as far as a I can tell we never had a single platform that actually registered resources for the platform driver. It's also been unmaintained for a long time and apparently has a ATA mode that can be driven using the IDE/libata subsystem.

1. Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Mflash and gflash are embedded flash drive. The only difference is mflash is
|
||||
MCP(Multi Chip Package) device. These two device operate exactly same way.
|
||||
So the rest mflash repersents mflash and gflash altogether.
|
||||
|
||||
Internally, mflash has nand flash and other hardware logics and supports
|
||||
2 different operation (ATA, IO) modes. ATA mode doesn't need any new
|
||||
driver and currently works well under standard IDE subsystem. Actually it's
|
||||
one chip SSD. IO mode is ATA-like custom mode for the host that doesn't have
|
||||
IDE interface.
|
||||
|
||||
Following are brief descriptions about IO mode.
|
||||
A. IO mode based on ATA protocol and uses some custom command. (read confirm,
|
||||
write confirm)
|
||||
B. IO mode uses SRAM bus interface.
|
||||
C. IO mode supports 4kB boot area, so host can boot from mflash.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Reserved area configuration
|
||||
If host boot from mflash, usually needs raw area for boot loader image. All of
|
||||
the mflash's block device operation will be taken this value as start offset.
|
||||
Note that boot loader's size of reserved area and kernel configuration value
|
||||
must be same.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Example of mflash platform driver registration
|
||||
Working mflash is very straight forward. Adding platform device stuff to board
|
||||
configuration file is all. Here is some pseudo example.

||||

||||

|
||||
/* If you want to polling driver set to 1 */

||||

||||

|
||||
.dev_attr = MG_BOOT_DEV
|
||||
};
|

||||
static struct resource mg_mflash_rsc[] = {
|
||||
/* Base address of mflash */

||||

||||

||||

||||

||||

|
||||

||||
.end = IRQ_GPIO(84),
|
||||
.flags = IORESOURCE_IRQ
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
.start = 43,
|
||||

||||

|
||||
.flags = IORESOURCE_IO
|
||||
},
|
||||
/* mflash reset-out pin
|
||||
* If you use mflash as storage device (i.e. other than MG_BOOT_DEV),
|
||||
* should assign this */
|
||||

|
||||
.start = 51,
|
||||
.end = 51,
|
||||
.name = MG_RSTOUT_PIN,
|
||||
.flags = IORESOURCE_IO
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
static struct platform_device mflash_dev = {
|
||||
.name = MG_DEV_NAME,
|
||||
.id = -1,

||||
.dev = {

||||
