[PATCH 00/16] NAND update (1st step)

[Ladislav Michl <ladis@linux-mips.org>]

The ultimate goal we are still quite far away is to update MTD subsystem
to something more recent. As it is rather hard to accomplish by simply
importing core files from linux-4.19 as there are many NAND drivers
not even present in mainline kernel in current (barebox) form, let's
choose incremental updating.

This patchset is rather selfish (and I'm sorry for that); its sole
purpose is being able to use Toshiba NAND (needing 8bit ECC) on
AT91SAM9G20 based board. This is also the only board I was able to
do runtime testing. To do this "mtd: atmel_nand: Add per board ECC
setup" patch is introduced. This shall be considered temporary
solution. As MTD core will be updated, we can import rewritten
Atmel NAND driver.

There more in queue, most notably mtd_ooblayout_ops conversion,
but let's focus on this serie first :)

Special thanks goes to Boris Brezillon for guiding me though pitfalls
of NAND devices while debugging Toshiba NAND support in Barebox.

Comments (or even help with fixes) very welcome, this will be likely
a bit painfull update.
