This is a new software BCH encoding/decoding library, similar to the shared
Reed-Solomon library.
Binary BCH (Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem) codes are widely used to correct
errors in NAND flash devices requiring more than 1-bit ecc correction; they
are generally better suited for NAND flash than RS codes because NAND bit
errors do not occur in bursts. Latest SLC NAND devices typically require at
least 4-bit ecc protection per 512 bytes block.
This library provides software encoding/decoding, but may also be used with
ASIC/SoC hardware BCH engines to perform error correction. It is being
currently used for this purpose on an OMAP3630 board (4bit/8bit HW BCH). It
has also been used to decode raw dumps of NAND devices with on-die BCH ecc
engines (e.g. Micron 4bit ecc SLC devices).
Latest NAND devices (including SLC) can exhibit high error rates (typically
a dozen or more bitflips per hour during stress tests); in order to
minimize the performance impact of error correction, this library
implements recently developed algorithms for fast polynomial root finding
(see bch.c header for details) instead of the traditional exhaustive Chien
root search; a few performance figures are provided below:
Platform: arm926ejs @ 468 MHz, 32 KiB icache, 16 KiB dcache
BCH ecc : 4-bit per 512 bytes
Encoding average throughput: 250 Mbits/s
Error correction time (compared with Chien search):
average worst average (Chien) worst (Chien)
----------------------------------------------------------
1 bit 8.5 µs 11 µs 200 µs 383 µs
2 bit 9.7 µs 12.5 µs 477 µs 728 µs
3 bit 18.1 µs 20.6 µs 758 µs 1010 µs
4 bit 19.5 µs 23 µs 1028 µs 1280 µs
In the above figures, "worst" is meant in terms of error pattern, not in
terms of cache miss / page faults effects (not taken into account here).
The library has been extensively tested on the following platforms: x86,
x86_64, arm926ejs, omap3630, qemu-ppc64, qemu-mips.

When page size is 4KiB, ecc.total is set to 8*9, and this causes
nand_write_page_hwecc() to read past the initialized part of the eccpos array,
which corrupts chip->oob_poi with bogus values from ecc_calc.
Fix this by creating a proper nand_ecclayout for 4KiB flashes.

The DaVinci NAND driver was including the mach-types.h header
file.
This prevented the DaVinci NAND driver from getting used
in a DSP only device. The linux port on c6x devices can make
use of the same driver and does not define a corresponding
header file.
This header file was required in the driver because earlier there was code
dependent on a machine_* check. This piece of code has now been factored out
and is in arch/arm/mach-davinci/aemif.c
Thus removing the header file is harmless

OMAP-L137/AM17x has limited number of dedicated EMIFA
address pins, enough to interface directly to an SDRAM.
If a device such as an asynchronous flash needs to be
attached to the EMIFA, then either GPIO pins or a chip
select may be used to control the flash device's upper
address lines.
This patch adds support for the NOR flash on the OMAP-L137/
AM17x user interface daughter board using the latch-addr-flash
MTD mapping driver which allows flashes to be partially
physically addressed. The upper address lines are set by
a board specific code which is a separate patch.

Move mtdconcat to be an integral part of the mtd core. It's a tiny bit
of code, which bears 'say Y if you don't know what to do' note in the
Kconfig. OTOH there are several ugly ifdefs depending on the MTD_CONCAT.
So, making MTD_CONCAT support mandatory will allow us to clean up code a
lot.
Kconfig entry is changed to be a bool defaulting to Y, so all code
pieces depending on it, will have MTD_CONCAT Kconfig symbol and
CONFIG_MTD_CONCAT define. This will be removed in one of next patches.
