Add two new debugfs files which allows to determine the OOB layout
used by a given MTD device. This can be useful to verify the current
layout during driver development without adding extra debug code.
The exposed information also makes it easier to analyze NAND dumps
without the need of crawling out the layout from the driver code.
The content of the new debugfs files is similar to this:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mtd/mtd0/ooblayout_ecc
0 0 49
1 65 63
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mtd/mtd0/ooblayout_free
0 49 16

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.
