Add one-shot feature for yaffs auto checkpointing.
This feature is enabling by ORing in 0x04 to the yaffs_auto_checkpoint
module parameter. This will do a one-shot checkpoint on the next sync and
the bit will then be reset.
This is a nice way to force a checkpoint on the next sync. eg.
echo 6 > /sys/modules/yaffs/parameters/yaffs_auto_checkpoint
sync
yaffs_auto_checkpoint will now be 2

To build YAFFS in the Linux kernel tree you need to run the patch-ker.sh script from the yaffs source directory, giving your choice as to whether you wish to copy (c) or link (l) the code and the path to your kernel sources, e.g: ./patch-ker.sh c /usr/src/linux This will copy the yaffs files into fs/yaffs2 and modify the Kconfig and Makefiles in the fs directory. ./patch-ker.sh l /usr/src/linux This does the same as the above but makes symbolic links instead. After you've run the script, go back to your normal kernel making procedure and configure the yaffs settings you want. Prolems?
