[U-Boot] [PATCH] Pad data length for nand write

[Derek Ou]

Sorry that my patch went out twice.  I ran into smtp authentication issue
with git-send-email.  Also, what is the right way to add more comments
to a patch?  Should I edit the patch generated by git-format-patch or I
should just add commit title, blank line and the full commit message when
I git commit my change locally.

Anyway, here is the purpose of the patch.
Until v1.3.4, "nand write.jffs2" supports non page-aligned data write and
pad data automatically to page alignment.  As a result, we can use the
following scripts to automate downloading a file and writing it to flash.
"tftp file.bin" and "nand write.jffs2 add_# off_# $(filesize)"
But in the later releases, this feature was no longer supported.  So my
patch restores this feature to nand write command.
