In order to be able to iterate easily across eraseblocks rather than pages, let's introduce a block iterator inspired from the page iterator. The main usage of this iterator will be for continuous/sequential reads, where it is interesting to use a single request rather than split the requests in smaller chunks (ie. pages) that can be hardly optimized. So a "continuous" boolean get's added for this purpose.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
