 * @file    mfs.c
 * @brief   Managed Flash Storage module code.
 * @details This module manages a flash partition as a generic storage where
 *          arbitrary data records can be created, updated, deleted and
 *          retrieved.<br>
 *          A managed partition is composed of two banks of equal size, a
 *          bank is composed of one or more erasable sectors, a sector is
 *          divided in writable pages.<br>
 *          The module handles flash wear leveling and recovery of damaged
 *          banks (where possible) caused by power loss during operations.
 *          Both operations are transparent to the user.
