There are two problems in the current timeout loop implementation:
1. In case initial test failing, there will always be a delay of 1 ms
2. The delay duration is not tunable
The new implementation addresses both these limitations.

If the flash size was smaller than 1MB then flash_print_info()
was erroneously reporting 0 MB.

THis patch introduces a new methodology for flash probing
in which flash_devices[] table, looked-up thru the dev_id, is
used to locate the flash geometry and information.

Since the smi erase code is very generic and works for any kind
of flash, there is no need to test for ST_M25Pxx_ID flash types
like m25p40 flashes).

smi_read_sr fails sometimes because of TFF not getting set within assumed time.
This condition may arise because of, for example, smi memory being in a erase
mode.
This fix is to enable reading the status register until timeout.

SMI driver read status fails because the control register could not be
overwritten. Instead, the read status should be tried until timeout.

This commit does the following:
- Reports error if SNOR flash is not found on the board
- Changes smi_read_sr to return error using which a retry mechanism is
implemented for reading flash status

Curently the code makes wrong assumption that the Transfer finished flag shall
be set within the stipulated time. However, there may occur a scenario in which
the TFF flag is not set. Return error in that case.

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.
