572 * corresponding physical eraseblock for erasure, so that it will eventually be
573 * physically erased in background. This operation is much faster then the
574 * erase operation.
576 * Unlike erase, the un-map operation does not guarantee that the logical
577 * eraseblock will contain all 0xFF bytes when UBI is initialized again. For
578 * example, if several logical eraseblocks are un-mapped, and an unclean reboot
579 * happens after this, the logical eraseblocks will not necessarily be
580 * un-mapped again when this MTD device is attached. They may actually be
581 * mapped to the same physical eraseblocks again. So, this function has to be
582 * used with care.
584 * In other words, when un-mapping a logical eraseblock, UBI does not store
585 * any information about this on the flash media, it just marks the logical
586 * eraseblock as "un-mapped" in RAM. If UBI is detached before the physical
587 * eraseblock is physically erased, it will be mapped again to the same logical
588 * eraseblock when the MTD device is attached again.
590 * The main and obvious use-case of this function is when the contents of a
591 * logical eraseblock has to be re-written. Then it is much more efficient to
592 * first un-map it, then write new data, rather then first erase it, then write
593 * new data. Note, once new data has been written to the logical eraseblock,
594 * UBI guarantees that the old contents has gone forever. In other words, if an
595 * unclean reboot happens after the logical eraseblock has been un-mapped and
596 * then written to, it will contain the last written data.
