JFFS2: add missing verify buffer allocation/deallocation

The function jffs2_nor_wbuf_flash_setup() doesn't allocate the verify buffer
if CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WBUF_VERIFY is defined, so causing a kernel panic when
that macro is enabled and the verify function is called. Similarly the
jffs2_nor_wbuf_flash_cleanup() must free the buffer if
CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WBUF_VERIFY is enabled.
The following patch fixes the problem.
The following patch applies to 2.6.30 kernel.

[JFFS2] Write buffer offset adjustment for NOR-ECC (Sibley) flash

After choosing new c->nextblock, don't leave the wbuf offset field
occasionally pointing at the start of the next physical eraseblock.
This was causing a BUG() on NOR-ECC (Sibley) flash, where we start
writing after the cleanmarker.

Among other this fix should cover write buffer offset adjustment
after flushing the last page of an eraseblock.

Commit a7a6ace1406f95c3edb8365788f85984377f3832 revamped the OOB
handling but accidentally switched to 12-byte cleanmarkers, which is
incompatible with what 'flash_eraseall -j' will do. So using
flash_eraseall -j and then trying to mount the 'empty' flash will fail,
because the cleanmarkers aren't recognised.

[JFFS2] Add support for write-buffer verification.

We've seen some evil corruption issues, where the corruption seems to be
introduced after the JFFS2 crc32 is calculated but before the NAND
controller calculates the ECC. So it's in RAM or in the PCI DMA
transfer; not on the flash. Attempt to catch it earlier by (optionally)
reading back from the flash immediately after writing it.

In particular, remove the bit in the LICENCE file about contacting
Red Hat for alternative arrangements. Their errant IS department broke
that arrangement a long time ago -- the policy of collecting copyright
assignments from contributors came to an end when the plug was pulled on
the servers hosting the project, without notice or reason.

We do still dual-license it for use with eCos, with the GPL+exception
licence approved by the FSF as being GPL-compatible. It's just that nobody

After a write error, any data in the write buffer must

summary information that is collected for writing at the
end of the block, which results in an incorrect summary
(or BUG if the summary was found to be empty).

As the summary is not essential (it is an optimisation),
it may be disabled for the current erase block when this
situation arises. This patch does that.
