Remove the compile-time option for FAST_READ, since we have run-time
support for detecting it. This refactors the logic for enabling
fast-read, such that for DT-enabled devices, we honor the
"m25p,fast-read" property but for non-DT devices, we default to using
FAST_READ whenever the flash device supports it.
Normal READ and FAST_READ differ only in the following:
* FAST_READ supports SPI higher clock frequencies [1]
* number of dummy cycles; FAST_READ requires 8 dummy cycles (whereas
READ requires 0) to allow the flash sufficient setup time, even when
running at higher clock speeds
Thus, for flash chips which support FAST_READ, there is otherwise no
limiting reason why we cannot use the FAST_READ opcode instead of READ.
It simply allows the SPI controller to run at higher clock rates. So
theoretically, nobody should be needing the compile-time option anyway.
[1] I have a Spansion S25FL128S datasheet which says:
"The maximum operating clock frequency for the READ command is 50
MHz."
And:
"The maximum operating clock frequency for FAST READ command is 133
MHz."

This patch fixes two memory errors:
1. During a probe failure (in mtd_device_parse_register?) the command
buffer would not be freed.
2. The command buffer's size is determined based on the 'fast_read'
boolean, but the assignment of fast_read is made after this
allocation. Thus, the buffer may be allocated "too small".
To fix the first, just switch to the devres version of kzalloc.
To fix the second, increase MAX_CMD_SIZE unconditionally. It's not worth
saving a byte to fiddle around with the conditions here.

In the imx6, all the ready/busy pins are binding togeter.
So we should always check the ready/busy pin of the chip 0.
In the other word, when the CS1 is enabled, we should also check the
ready/busy of chip 0; if we check the ready/busy of chip 1,
we will get the wrong result.

Some nand chip has two DIEs in a single chip, such as Micron MT29F32G08QAA.
Each die has its own chip select pin, so this chip acts as two nand
chips.
If we only scan one chip, we may find that we only get 2G for this chip,
but in actually, this chip's size is 4G.
So scan two chips by default.

as per controller description,
"While programming a NAND flash, status read should never skipped.
Because it may happen that a new command is issued to the NAND Flash,
even when the device has not yet finished processing the previous request.
This may result in unpredictable behaviour."
IFC controller never polls for R/B signal after command send. It just return
control to software. This behaviour may not occur with NAND flash access.
because new commands are sent after polling R/B signal. But it may happen
in scenario where GPCM-ASIC and NAND flash device are working simultaneously.

Hardware:
CPU: XLP832,the 64-bit OS
NOR Flash:S29GL128S 128M
Software:
Kernel:2.6.32.41
Filesystem:JFFS2
When writing files, errors appear:
Write len 182 but return retlen 180
Write of 182 bytes at 0x072c815c failed. returned -5, retlen 180
Write len 186 but return retlen 184
Write of 186 bytes at 0x072caff4 failed. returned -5, retlen 184
These errors exist only in 64-bit systems,not in 32-bit systems. After analysis, we
found that the left shift operation is wrong in map_word_load_partial. For instance:
unsigned char buf[3] ={0x9e,0x3a,0xea};
map_bankwidth(map) is 4;
for (i=0; i < 3; i++) {
int bitpos;
bitpos = (map_bankwidth(map)-1-i)*8;
orig.x[0] &= ~(0xff << bitpos);
orig.x[0] |= buf[i] << bitpos;
}
The value of orig.x[0] is expected to be 0x9e3aeaff, but in this situation(64-bit
System) we'll get the wrong value of 0xffffffff9e3aeaff due to the 64-bit sign
extension:
buf[i] is defined as "unsigned char" and the left-shift operation will convert it
to the type of "signed int", so when left-shift buf[i] by 24 bits, the final result
will get the wrong value: 0xffffffff9e3aeaff.
If the left-shift bits are less than 24, then sign extension will not occur. Whereas
the bankwidth of the nor flash we used is 4, therefore this BUG emerges.

Most of the bcm47xx devices use TRX format for storing kernel and some
partition like Squashfs or JFFS2. This is pretty flexible solution, CFE
(the bootloader) just writes (and later boots) TRX at some hardcoded
place and paritions can vary in the size.
However some devices don't use TRX format. Very recently we have
discovered ZTE H218N that has kernel and rootfs partitions at some
"random" places.
This patch allows Linux find a rootfs partition after installing custom
image with a CFE bootloader.

Some bright specification writers decided to write this in the ONFI spec
(from ONFI 3.0, Section 3.1):
"The number of blocks and number of pages per block is not required to
be a power of two. In the case where one of these values is not a
power of two, the corresponding address shall be rounded to an
integral number of bits such that it addresses a range up to the
subsequent power of two value. The host shall not access upper
addresses in a range that is shown as not supported."
This breaks every assumption MTD makes about NAND block/chip-size
dimensions -- they *must* be a power of two!
And of course, an enterprising manufacturer has made use of this lovely
freedom. Exhibit A: Micron MT29F32G08CBADAWP
"- Plane size: 2 planes x 1064 blocks per plane
- Device size: 32Gb: 2128 blockss [sic]"
This quickly hits a BUG() in nand_base.c, since the extra dimensions
overflow so we think it's a second chip (on my single-chip setup):

Some firmware doesn't initialize initial backlight level to a proper
value and _BQC will return 0 on first time evaluation. We used to be
able to detect such incorrect value with our code logic, as value 0
normally isn't a valid value in _BCL. But with the introduction of Win8,
firmware begins to fill _BCL with values from 0 to 100, now 0 becomes
a valid value but that value will make user's screen black. This patch
test initial _BQC for value 0, if such a value is returned, do not use
it.
