This driver doesn't specify parsers so it can use that little helper.

A comment in the kernel doc of the mtd_oob_ops structure tells that it
is not possible to write more than one page with OOB. This is actually
true for only a few MTD devices like 'onenand' but it is definitely not
a general limitation. While this would benefit to be handled elsewhere
either by the MTD layer or by the limited drivers, let's update this
comment to reflect the reality.

Fix indentation and replace '---help---' by 'help' to make things

The first checks in mtdchar_read() and mtdchar_write() attempt to limit
`count` such that `*ppos + count <= mtd->size`. However, they ignore the
possibility of `*ppos > mtd->size`, allowing the calculation of `count` to
wrap around. `mtdchar_lseek()` prevents seeking beyond mtd->size, but the
pread/pwrite syscalls bypass this.
I haven't found any codepath on which this actually causes dangerous
behavior, but it seems like a sensible change anyway.

Some MTD sublayers/drivers are implementing ->_read/write() and
not ->_read/write_oob().
While for NAND devices both are usually valid, for NOR devices, using
the _oob variant has no real meaning. But, as the MTD layer is supposed
to hide as much as possible the flash complexity to the user, there is
no reason to error out while it is just a matter of rewritting things
internally.
Add a fallback on mtd->_read() (resp. mtd->_write()) when the user calls
mtd_read_oob() (resp. mtd_write_oob()) while mtd->_read_oob() (resp.
mtd->_write_oob) is not implemented. There is already a fallback on the
_oob variant if the former is used.

Most users of jffs2 are 32-bit systems that traditionally only support
timestamps using a 32-bit signed time_t, in the range from years 1902 to
2038. On 64-bit systems, jffs2 however interpreted the same timestamps
as unsigned values, reading back negative times (before 1970) as times
between 2038 and 2106.
Now that Linux supports 64-bit inode timestamps even on 32-bit systems,
let's use the second interpretation everywhere to allow jffs2 to be
used on 32-bit systems beyond 2038 without a fundamental change to the
inode format.
This has a slight risk of regressions, when existing files with timestamps
before 1970 are present in file system images and are now interpreted
as future time stamps. I considered moving the wraparound point a bit,
e.g. to 1960, in order to deal with timestamps that ended up on Dec 31,
1969 due to incorrect timezone handling. However, this would complicate
the implementation unnecessarily, so I went with the simplest possible
method of extending the timestamps.
Writing files with timestamps before 1970 or after 2106 now results
in those times being clamped in the file system.

The VFS now uses timespec64 timestamps consistently, but jffs2 still
converts them to 32-bit numbers on the storage medium. As the helper
functions for the conversion (get_seconds() and timespec_to_timespec64())
are now deprecated, let's change them over to the more modern
replacements.
This keeps the traditional interpretation of those values, where
the on-disk 32-bit numbers are taken to be negative numbers, i.e.
dates before 1970, on 32-bit machines, but future numbers past 2038
on 64-bit machines.

Using "%4.4X" in the calculation of the buffer size is misleading, as
the format string literal has no relation to the actual size needed.
Hence this is fragile w.r.t. future modification.
As this is not a hot path, fix this by replacing the formatting in a
fixed buffer by kasprintf().

This allows using TRX parser to find TRX partitions on flash device
described in DT using a proper binding. It's useful for devices storing
firmware on a separated flash and having rootfs partition in it.
