access to UBI volumes. It is useful for those who want to use squashfs on top
of raw flash devices. UBI will provide bit-flip handling and wear-levelling in
this case (e.g., if there are other UBI volumes with R/W UBIFS too).
The driver is actually pretty small and it is part of the UBI kernel subsystem.
Delivered by Ezequiel Garcia, along with a piece of documentation on the MTD
web site and the user-space tool for creating and removing block devices.

"This pull request includes the 'ubiblock' driver which provides R/O
block access to UBI volumes. It is useful for those who want to use
squashfs on top of raw flash devices. UBI will provide bit-flip
handling and wear-levelling in this case (e.g., if there are other UBI
volumes with R/W UBIFS too).
