The redboot partitioning code currently searches for a FIS table entry
named "RedBoot" (including the trailing \0) in one of the first three
entries to try and verify that the sector it is looking at really is a
FIS partition table.

Firstly it fails when RedBoot is stored in some other Flash chip such as
a boot PROM, in this case there is no "RedBoot" entry in the partition
table. However there will always be a "FIS directory" entry in any valid
FIS directory.
        
Secondly it can fail since the RedBoot entry is not always in the first
3 slots -- this can happen for example on an x86 based platform where
the processor expects the boot device to be at the top of memory rather
than the bottom and so RedBoot is at the end of the flash device.
Equally when using "FIS directory" as the entry to search for it very
likely is not in the first three since the directory is typically at the
end of the flash.

If a directory entry refers to an inode which doesn't actually exist,
we weren't marking it obsolete, so it was still visible in the file
system, and would give EIO if you ever tried to stat it. Once upon
a time, perl -e 'unlink' and rm -f would manage to unlink such things
but nowadays they both try to stat it first and stupidly refuse to 
even attempt the unlink if the stat fails, and this is more of a 
problem. So we throw it away ourselves.

This allows for MTD support to be used on flash memory which is also used
for XIP purposes, either XIP kernel or XIP userspace.  The whole idea is
to relocate functions actually modifying the flash state away from array mode
to ram and run them with interrupt disabled.  When the flash needs some time
to complete a certain operation, we poll the processor for pending (but still
masked) interrupts, and when they occur we suspend the flash operation in order
to unmask interrupts and let the system run again.
