them, please let me know if not). Most of these are of the form:
static const struct bzzt_type {
[...list of members...]
} const bzzt_devs[] = {
[...list of initializers...]
};
The second const is unnecessary, as arrays cannot be modified anyway,
and if the elements are const, the whole thing is const automatically
(e.g. it is placed in .rodata).
I have verified this does not change the binary output of a full kernel
build (except for build timestamps embedded in the object files).

- Make the device description match the driver name.
- Identify the chip variant based on the JEDEC and use that information
to use the proper values for page count, offset and size instead of
hardcoding a AT45DB642x with 2^N byte page support disabled.
- Take advantage of bioq_takefirst().
- Given that CONTINUOUS_ARRAY_READ_HF (0x0b) command isn't even mentioned
in Atmel's DataFlash Application Note, as suggested by the previous
comment may not work on all all devices and actually doesn't properly
on at least AT45DB321D (JEDEC 0x1f2701), rewrite at45d_task() to use
CONTINUOUS_ARRAY_READ (0xe8) for reading instead. This rewrite is laid
out in a way allowing to easily add support for BIO_DELETE later on.
- Add support for reads and writes not starting on a page boundary.
- Verify the flash content after writing.
- Let at45d_task() gracefully handle errors on SPI transfers and the
device not becoming ready afterwards again. [1]
- Use DEVMETHOD_END. [1]
- Use NULL instead of 0 for pointers. [1]

to kproc_xxx as they actually make whole processes.
Thos makes way for us to add REAL kthread_create() and friends
that actually make theads. it turns out that most of these
calls actually end up being moved back to the thread version
when it's added. but we need to make this cosmetic change first.
I'd LOVE to do this rename in 7.0 so that we can eventually MFC the
new kthread_xxx() calls.
Preliminary support for Atmel AT45D series of DataFlash on the
SPI bus (ok, not really a hardware bus, but a logical
connection). This works only for the 8MB version of the part
due to hard coding. Both read and write are supported.
