Running nandtest on devices with sizes of 4Gb or more does not work, as
the size returned in mtd_info_user is reported as 0 for 4Gb devices for

The patch uses sysfs to figure out the size of the nand device (as

mtd-utils: Add new syntax to get devices by name
This introduces a new feature to the MTD command line utilities that
allows MTD devices to be referenced by name instead of device node. For
example this looks like:
> # Display info for the MTD device with name "data"
> mtdinfo mtd:data
> # Copy file to MTD device with name "data"
> flashcp /my/file mtd:data
This follows the syntax supported by the kernel which allows MTD
device's to be mounted by name[1].
Add the function mtd_find_dev_node() that accepts an MTD "identifier"
and returns the MTD's device node. The function accepts a string
starting with "mtd:" which it treats as the MTD's name. It then attempts
to search for the MTD, and if found maps it back to the /dev/mtdX device
node. If the string does not start with "mtd:", then assume it's the old
style and refers directly to a MTD device node.
The function is then hooked into existing tools like flashcp, mtdinfo,
flash_unlock, etc. To load in the new MTD parsing code in a consistent
way across programs.

mtd-utils: flash_speed: Measure read while write latency
The Read While Write (RWW) feature allows to perform reads from the
flash array into cache while a program (from cache) or an erase
operation happens, provided that the two areas are located on different
banks.
The main benefit is the possible reduced latency when requesting to read
a page while a much longer operation is ongoing, like a write or an
erase.
We can try to compare the positive impact of such a feature by enhancing
the flash_speed test tool with the following test:
- Measure the time taken by an eraseblock write in parallel with an
eraseblock read.
- Measure when the read operation ends.
- Compare the two to get the latency saved with the RWW feature.
To be sure the mtd_write actually starts (and acquires the necessary
locks) before the mtd_read does, we use SCHED_FIFO at rather high
(arbitrary) priorities, respectively 42 and 41.

libmtd: do not ignore non-zero eraseblock size when MTD_NO_ERASE is set
In 54d68799, mtd->eb_cnt was enforced to be '1' if MTD_NO_ERASE is set.
This was done with the aim of preventing divisions by zero.
However, even if MTD_NO_ERASE is set, mtd->eb_size (eraseblock size) can
still be set to a non-zero value which would not cause a division by
zero.
Instead, enforcing an eraseblock count of '1' here even leads to
inconsistent eraseblock counting in mtd-utils and lets for example a
'flash_erase' on an mtdnand device fail:
| # flash_erase /dev/mtd0 0 0

| flash_erase: error!: /dev/mtd0: MTD get bad block failed
| error 22 (Invalid argument)
Also mtdinfo would look inconsistent (eraseblock size vs amount):
| # mtdinfo /dev/mtd0
| mtd0
| Name: mtdram test device
| Type: ram

| Character device major/minor: 90:0
| Bad blocks are allowed: false
| Device is writable: true

One typical example I used this tool for is testing HW ECC engines behavior

ubihealthd: Add option -h/--help
Using '?' as option did not work, and would be strange to pass anyway,
because it's a glob char for the shell and you would have to escape it
like ./ubihealthd -\? … use the more common -h/--help instead.
Note: this does not touch the output, just changes the options itself.

ubihealthd: Add missing sentinel in options array
`getopt_long()` requires a null terminated array, otherwise we get
segfaults when passing invalid options.

ubi-utils: Implement a ubihealthd
ubihealthd is a simple daemon which scans every PEB
of an UBI device in random order.
It helps to deal with read disturb on systems which either
reboot seldom, use fastmap or read few data.
To use this daemon you need Linux >= v5.1.

mkfs.ubifs: Add authentication support
This adds support for authenticated UBIFS images. In authenticated
images all UBIFS nodes are hashed as described in the UBIFS
authentication whitepaper. Additionally the superblock node contains a
hash of the master node and itself is cryptographically signed in a node
following the superblock node. The signature is in PKCS #7 CMS format.
To generate an authenticated image these options are necessary:
--hash-algo=NAME hash algorithm to use for signed images
(Valid options include sha1, sha256, sha512)
--auth-key=FILE filename or PKCS #11 uri containing the authentication key
for signing
--auth-cert=FILE Authentication certificate filename for signing. Unused
when certificate is provided via PKCS #11

mkfs.ubifs: remove ZSTD_CLEVEL_DEFAULT for backwards compatibillity
Support for ZSTD compression has been added recently through the ZSTD
library, which is famously known for its incredibly well designed and
stable API.
This patch removes usage of ZSTD_CLEVEL_DEFAULT, which isn't exposed
in older versions of the ZSTD library, and replaces it with with the
constant parameter 0. According to the documentation this should then
use a reasonable default (which is defined internally).
Other possible approachs include defining ZSTD_CLEVEL_DEFAULT to 3
(the value it _currently_ has) if it isn't defined. This patch chooses
the approach of passing 0 since this seems to be encouraged by the
existing documentation.
