This driver is the last/only user of NAND_OWN_BUFFERS. Boris suggested
to remove this flag.
Taking a closer look at this driver, it calls dma_alloc_coherent() for
the concatenated area for the DMA bounce buffer + struct nand_buffers,
but the latter does not need to be DMA-coherent; cafe_{write,read}_buf
simply do memcpy() between buffers when usedma==1.
Let's do dma_alloc_coherent() for the DMA bounce buffer in the front,
and leave the nand_buffers allocation to nand_scan_tail(), then rip off
NAND_OWN_BUFFERS.
The magic number, 2112, is still mysterious (hard-coded writesize +
oobsize ?), but this is not our main interest. I am keeping it.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
