Subject: [Yaffs] CVS updates
Hi YAFFSers

I have just done some YAFFS and YAFFS2 updates in CVS.

Some of these are patching in some older stuff that I should have done a
while ago and include the fixes to kill_block_super and the handling of
special inodes in 2.6. I have been delaying these waiting to set up a new
2.6 box, but have not done this and so checked them in anyway. If any of this
breaks you, please scream.


The major change has been adding the two scanning speed-ups to YAFFS2:
* Backward scanning
* Stuffing extra information into the tags for object headers.
Some people have tried these and get **huge** speedups in mounting.
