This patch solves kernel deadlock issue seen on JFFF2 simultaneous operations. Detailed investigation of the issue showed that the kernel deadlock is caused by tons of recursive get_chip calls.

jffs2_write_end() is sometimes passing back a "written" length greater than the length we passed into it, leading to a BUG at mm/filemap.c:1749 when used with unionfs. It happens because we actually write more than was requested, to reduce log fragmentation. These "longer" writes are fine, but they shouldn't get propagated back to the vm/vfs.

Add read_buf/write_buf for s3c2440, which can read/write 32 bits at a time rather than just 8. In my testing on an s3c2440a running at 400 MHz with a 100 MHz HCLK, read performance improves by 36% (from 5.19 MB/s to 7.07 MB/s).

[In commit 9ed437c5 we fixed a problem with standard permissions on newly-created inodes, when POSIX ACLs are enabled. This cleans it up...] The attached patch separate jffs2_init_acl() into two parts. The one is jffs2_init_acl_pre() called from jffs2_new_inode(). It compute ACL oriented inode->i_mode bits, and allocate in-memory ACL objects associated with the new inode just before when inode meta infomation is written to the medium. The other is jffs2_init_acl_post() called from jffs2_symlink(), jffs2_mkdir(), jffs2_mknod() and jffs2_do_create(). It actually writes in-memory ACL objects into the medium next to the success of writing meta-information. In the current implementation, we have to write a same inode meta infomation twice when inode->i_mode is updated by the default ACL. However, we can avoid the behavior by putting an updated i_mode before it is written at first, as jffs2_init_acl_pre() doing.

This reverts commit a5bf3d89. David Brownell notes that this causes a regression visible in the drivers/usb/gadget Kconfig file: "That Kconfig hasn't changed (other than adding new drivers), and it's worked that way for several years now ... so the issue seems to be changes in menuconfig/kconfig/etc semantics. The issue is that when USB_GADGET=m, it's no longer possible to configure peripheral controller drivers as modules ... the controller drivers can now only be configured for static linkage. It should be making a choice of one of the controller drivers which could work on the target system, and allow that driver to be linked either as a module (ok iff USB_GADGET=m) or statically." Reverting this commit resolves the problem, and also fixes a second problem that David noticed: various dependent options couldn't be enabled.
