[U-Boot] [PATCH v6 00/27] SPI-NAND support

During the last months, Boris Brezillon shared his work to support
serial flashes within Linux. First, he delivered (and merged) a new
layer called spi-mem. He also initiated in Linux MTD subsystem the move
of all 'raw' NAND related code to a raw/ subdirectory, adding at the
same time a NAND core that would be shared with all NAND devices. Then,
he contributed a generic SPI-NAND driver, making use of this NAND core,
as well as some vendor code to drive a few chips.

On top of this work, I added an 'mtd' U-Boot command to handle all sort
of MTD devices. This should become the default command instead of having
one per flash flavor ('sf', 'nand', 'spi-nand' ?).

The series has been tested on an Ocelot board PCB123 (VSC7514),
featuring a Macronix SPI NAND chip.

TL;DR: the series contains:
- A few patches from Linux to resynchronize some areas of the MTD layer.
- Various fixes and re-organization of the MTD subsystem.
- The introduction of the SPI-mem interface.
- The addition of the generic SPI-NAND driver (and its bindings).
- Several SPI NAND chip drivers (Macronix, Micron, Winbond).
- A new 'mtd' command.
- Support for spi-nand devices in mtdparts.

To test your SPI-NAND device with U-Boot simply follow these lines:

> setenv mtdparts mtdparts=spi-nand0:1m(foo),-(bar)
> setenv mtdids spi-nand0=spi-nand0
> mtdparts             # show the spi-nand device partitions
> ubi part bar         # create a static UBI volume in the bar partition

Thanks,
Miquèl

Changes since v5:
-----------------
* Included Boris fixup about the build issues.
* Added Rb/Ab tags from Jagan on patchs 20/21.

Changes since v4:
-----------------
* Added Jagan's Acked-by tags to every patch related to the
  SPI-mem/SPI-NAND addition.
* Rebased on top of master.

Changes since v3:
-----------------
* Fixed the debug messages in spi-mem to print either Rx or Tx data.
* Fixed a Kconfig error that prevented to build mtdparts with plain
  defconfig.
* Fixed a compilation error due to the above error that prevented one
  file to be compiled.
* Adapted the mtd command to probe MTD partitions also.
* Declared mtd_probe_devices() in a header so mtdparts or UBI could
  use it too (to probe all devices and MTD partitions in a clean way).
* As I worked on mtdparts, I found annoying and completely useless the
  fact that we need to prefix the environment variable with
  "mtdparts=". Canceled this obligation.
* Added one patch to allow spi-nand devices to be recognized by mtdparts
  (this is purely useless but needed to be done in order to use this
  command).
* Removed useless definitions of MTD device types in UBI code.
* Wrote a generic mtdparts environment variable parser, used by the mtd
  command.
* Used the mtd_probe_devices() function from get_mtd_info() in
  cmd/mtdparts.c to be sure the desired partition really does not exist
  (otherwise it will be probed and then found).

Changes since v2:
-----------------
* Rebased on u-boot master branch.
* Removed extra-parenthesis in
  "mtd: Fallback to ->_read/write() when ->_read/write_oob() is missing"
* s/fiels/files/ in "mtd: move NAND fiels into a raw/ subdirectory"
* Do not describe generic SPI device properties in SPI NAND bindings.
* Changes in the mtd command:
  * Printing more information in 'mtd list' (device type, device
    characteristics)
  * Switch to do_div() instead of '(u32)value64b % value32b' which only
    worked because value32b was a power of 2.
  * Removed erase.chip option.
  * By default, erase/read/write happen on the full MTD device while a
    dump will only work on a single page.

Changes since v1:
-----------------
* Fixed the nand_memorg structure of the MX35LF2GE4AB chip.
* Added Reviewed-by tags from Jagan.
* Backported and squashed two patches fixing things in the SPI NAND core
  received on the Linux ML.
* Backported more changes in mtdcore.c from Linux.
* Added a patch to add a fallback on mtd->_read/_write() in mtdcore.c
  when mtd->_read/write_oob() is not supported.
* Removed the DT changes, useless as the DTs are not available in
  mainline yet.
* Addressed Boris/Stefan comments on the 'mtd' command.
* Added support for multi-pages OOB read/write.
