This patch is essentially an update of u-boot MTD subsystem to
the state of Linux-3.7.1 with exclusion of some bits:
- the update is concentrated on NAND, no onenand or CFI/NOR/SPI
flashes interfaces are updated EXCEPT for API changes.
- new large NAND chips support is there, though some updates
have got in Linux-3.8.-rc1, (which will follow on top of this patch).
To produce this update I used tag v3.7.1 of linux-stable repository.
The update was made using application of relevant patches,
with changes relevant to U-Boot-only stuff sticked together
to keep bisectability. Then all changes were grouped together
to this patch.

SMI is the serial memory interface controller provided by ST.
Earlier, a driver exists in the u-boot source code for the SMI IP. However, it
was specific to spear platforms. This commit converts the same driver to a more
generic driver. As a result, the driver files are renamed to st_smi.c and
st_smi.h and moved into drivers/mtd folder for reusability by other platforms
using smi controller peripheral.

Move the header file and definitions of ftsmc020
static memory control unit from a320 SoC folder to
"drivers/mtd" folder.
This change will let other SoC which also use ftsmc020
could share the same header file.

Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".
This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.
The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.
This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.

SPEAr SoCs contain a serial memory interface controller. This
controller is used to interface with spi based memories.
This patch adds the driver for this IP.

This new define enables mtdcore.c compilation and with this we can
select the MTD device infrastructure needed for the reworked mtdparts
command.
We now have the 2 MTD infrastructure defines, CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE and
CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS. CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE is needed (as explained above)
for the "mtdparts" command and CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS is needed for UBI.

This patch adds concatenation support to the U-Boot MTD infrastructure.
By enabling CONFIG_MTD_CONCAT this MTD CFI wrapper will concatenate
all found NOR devices into one single MTD device. This can be used by
e.g by UBI to access a partition that spans over multiple NOR chips.

Fix dependency goofage: it should certainly be possible to have the
partition support without bringing in UBI commands.

Add cfi-mtd driver, which exports CFI flash to MTD layer.
This allows CFI flash devices to be used from MTD layer.
Building of the new driver is controlled by CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
option. Initialization is done by calling cfi_mtd_init() from
flash_init().
