Commit 7426aa72c3 (nand: Don't inherit
from Sysbus) changed the parent type of TYPE_NAND but continued to use
qdev_create(), which handled a NULL BusState as SysBus.
Use object_new() instead, and reuse the TYPE_NAND define while at it.

The alignment field is now set to the value that is promised to the

QEMU aware of the host-provided values, so make this clear.
The alignment is also not about memory buffers, but about the sectors on

At this point, the field is set by the device emulation, but completely

In an ideal world, machines can be built by wiring devices together
with configuration, not code. Unfortunately, that's not the world we
live in right now. We still have quite a few devices that need to be
wired up by code. If you try to device_add such a device, it'll fail
in sometimes mysterious ways. If you're lucky, you get an
unmysterious immediate crash.
To protect users from such badness, DeviceClass member no_user used to
make device models unavailable with -device / device_add, but that
regressed in commit 18b6dad. The device model is still omitted from
help, but is available anyway.
Attempts to fix the regression have been rejected with the argument
that the purpose of no_user isn't clear, and it's prone to misuse.
This commit clarifies no_user's purpose. Anthony suggested to rename
it cannot_instantiate_with_device_add_yet_due_to_internal_bugs, which
I shorten somewhat to keep checkpatch happy. While there, make it
bool.
Every use of cannot_instantiate_with_device_add_yet gets a FIXME
comment asking for rationale. The next few commits will clean them
all up, either by providing a rationale, or by getting rid of the use.
With that done, the regression fix is hopefully acceptable.

Fix NOR flash manufacturer and device ID reading. This now
properly takes into account device widths and device max widths
as required. The reading of these IDs uses the same max_width
dependent addressing as CFI queries.
The old code remains for chips that don't specify a device width,
as the new code relies on a device width being set in order to
properly operate. The existing code seems very broken.
Only ident0 and ident1 are used in the new code, as other fields
relate to the lock state of blocks in flash.
The VExpress flash configuration has been updated to match
the new code, as the existing definition was 'wrong' in order
to return the expected results with the broken device ID code.

This change fixes the CFI query responses to handle NOR device
widths that are different from the bank width. Support is also
added for multi-width devices in a x8 configuration. This is
typically x8/x16 devices, but the CFI specification mentions
x8/x32 devices so those should be supported as well if they
exist.
The query response data is now replicated per-device in the bank,
and is adjusted for x16 or x32 parts configured in x8 mode.
The existing code is left in place for boards that have not
been updated to specify an explicit device_width. The VExpress
board has been updated in an earlier patch in this series so
this is the only board currently affected.

For handling CFI and device ID reads, we need to not only know the
width that a NOR flash device is configured for, but also its maximum
width. The maximum width addressing mode is used for multi-width
parts no matter which width they are configured for. The most common
case is x16 parts that also support x8 mode. When configured for x8
operation these devices respond to CFI and device ID requests differently

The width of the devices that make up the flash interface
is required to mask certain commands, in particular the
write length for buffered writes. This length will be presented
to each device on the interface by the program writing the flash,
and the flash emulation code needs to be able to determine
the length of the write as recieved by each flash device.
The device-width defaults to the bank width which should
maintain existing behavior for platforms that don't need
this change.
This change is required to support buffered writes on the
vexpress platform that has a 32 bit flash interface with 2
16 bit devices on it.

Commit 4472beae modified the semantics of ioreq_{un,}map so that they are
idempotent if called when they're not needed (ie., twice in a row). However,
it neglected to handle the case where batch mapping is not being used (the
default), and one of the grants fails to map. In this case, ioreq_unmap will
be called to unwind and unmap any mappings already performed, but ioreq_unmap
simply returns due to the aforementioned change (the ioreq has not already
been marked as mapped).
The frontend user can therefore force xen_disk to leak grant mappings, a
per-domain limited resource.
Fix by marking the ioreq as mapped before calling ioreq_unmap in this
situation.

The following sequence happens:
- the SeaBIOS virtio-blk driver does not support the WCE feature, which
causes QEMU to disable writeback caching
- the Linux virtio-blk driver resets the device, finds WCE is available
but writeback caching is disabled; tells block layer to not send cache
flush commands
- the Linux virtio-blk driver sets the DRIVER_OK bit, which causes
writeback caching to be re-enabled, but the Linux virtio-blk driver does
not know of this side effect and cache flushes remain disabled
The bug is at the third step. If the guest does know about CONFIG_WCE,
QEMU should ignore the WCE feature's state. The guest will control the
cache mode solely using configuration space. This change makes Linux
do flushes correctly, but Linux will keep SeaBIOS's writethrough mode.
Hence, whenever the guest is reset, the cache mode of the disk should
be reset to whatever was specified in the "-drive" option. With this
change, the Linux virtio-blk driver finds that writeback caching is
enabled, and tells the block layer to send cache flush commands
appropriately.

Dataplane must check whether a block device is in use before launching
the dataplane thread. This is necessary since the thread does not
synchronize with the main loop and I/O requests could cause corruption.
One example is when a drive is added and a block job is started before
hotplugging the virtio-blk-pci adapter. In this case we must not use
dataplane mode.

Support backend option "direct-io-safe". This is documented as
follows in the Xen backend specification:
* direct-io-safe
* Values: 0/1 (boolean)
* Default Value: 0
*
* The underlying storage is not affected by the direct IO memory
* lifetime bug. See:
* http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-12/msg01154.html
*
* Therefore this option gives the backend permission to use
* O_DIRECT, notwithstanding that bug.
*
* That is, if this option is enabled, use of O_DIRECT is safe,
* in circumstances where we would normally have avoided it as a
* workaround for that bug. This option is not relevant for all
* backends, and even not necessarily supported for those for
* which it is relevant. A backend which knows that it is not
* affected by the bug can ignore this option.
*
* This option doesn't require a backend to use O_DIRECT, so it
* should not be used to try to control the caching behaviour.
Also, BDRV_O_NATIVE_AIO is ignored if BDRV_O_NOCACHE, so clarify the
default flags passed to the qemu block layer.
The original proposal for a "cache" backend option has been dropped
because it was believed too wide, especially considering that at the
moment the backend doesn't have a way to tell the toolstack that it is
capable of supporting it.

The firmware commonly used with MIPS Malta boards (YAMON) reads the
status of the pflash with a 32bit memory access. On real hardware
this results in the status byte being mirrored in the upper 16 bits
of the read value. For example if the status byte is represented by
SS then the hardware reads 0x00SS00SS. The YAMON firmware compares the
