Provide an option in DT to use legacy bch geometry, which compatible
with the 3.10 kernel bch setting. To enable the feature, adding
"fsl,legacy-bch-geometry" under gpmi-nand node.
NOTICE: The feature must be enabled/disabled in both u-boot and kernel.

The code change updated the NAND driver BCH ECC layout algorithm to
support large oob size NAND chips(oob > 1024 bytes) and proposed a new
way to set ECC layout.
Current implementation requires each chunk size larger than oob size so
the bad block marker (BBM) can be guaranteed located in data chunk. The
ECC layout always using the unbalanced layout(Ecc for both meta and
Data0 chunk), but for the NAND chips with oob larger than 1k, the driver
cannot support because BCH doesn’t support GF 15 for 2K chunk.
The change keeps the data chunk no larger than 1k and adjust the ECC
strength or ECC layout to locate the BBM in data chunk. General idea for
large oob NAND chips is
1.Try all ECC strength from the minimum value required by NAND spec to
the maximum one that works, any ECC makes the BBM locate in data chunk
can be chosen.
2.If none of them works, using separate ECC for meta, which will add one
extra ecc with the same ECC strength as other data chunks. This extra
ECC can guarantee BBM located in data chunk, of course, we need to check
if oob can afford it.
Previous code has two methods for ECC layout setting, the
legacy_calc_ecc_layout and calc_ecc_layout_by_info, the difference
between these two methods is, legacy_calc_ecc_layout set the chunk size
larger chan oob size and then set the maximum ECC strength that oob can
afford. While the calc_ecc_layout_by_info set chunk size and ECC
strength according to NAND spec. It has been proved that the first
method cannot provide safe ECC strength for some modern NAND chips, so
in current code,
1. Driver read NAND parameters first and then chose the proper ECC
layout setting method.
2. If the oob is large or NAND required data chunk larger than oob size,
chose calc_ecc_for_large_oob, otherwise use calc_ecc_layout_by_info
3. legacy_calc_ecc_layout only used for some NAND chips does not contains
necessary information. So this is only a backup plan, it is NOT
recommended to use these NAND chips.

On i.MX7 in a sake of reducing the disturbances caused by a neighboring
cells in the FCB page in the NAND chip, a randomizer is enabled when
reading the FCB page by ROM bootloader.
Add API for setting BCH to specific layout (and restoring it back) used by
ROM bootloader to be able to burn it in a proper way to NAND using
nandbcb command.

Writing/updating boot image in nand device is not
straight forward in i.MX6 platform and it requires
boot control block(BCB) to be configured.
It becomes difficult to use uboot 'nand' command to
write BCB since it requires platform specific attributes
need to be taken care of.
It is even difficult to use existing msx-nand.c driver by
incorporating BCB attributes like mxs_dma_desc does
because it requires change in mtd and nand command.
So, cmd_nandbcb implemented in arch/arm/mach-imx
BCB contains two data structures, Firmware Configuration Block(FCB)
and Discovered Bad Block Table(DBBT). FCB has nand timings,
DBBT search area, page address of firmware.
On summary, nandbcb update will
- erase the entire partition
- create BCB by creating 2 FCB/DBBT block followed by
1 FW block based on partition size and erasesize.
- fill FCB/DBBT structures
- write FW/SPL on FW1
- write FCB/DBBT in first 2 blocks
for nand boot, up on reset bootrom look for FCB structure in
first block's if FCB found the nand timings are loaded for
further reads. once FCB read done, DTTB will load and finally
firmware will be loaded which is boot image.
Refer section "NAND Boot" from doc/imx/common/imx6.txt for more usage
information.
