nand_base can be passed a kmap()'d buffers from highmem by
filesystems like jffs2. This results in failure to map the
physical address of the DMA buffer on various contoller
driver on different platforms. This change adds a chip option
to use preallocated databuf as bounce buffers used in
nand_do_read_ops() and nand_do_write_ops().
This allows for specific nand controller driver to set this

The nand_chip::erase_cmd callback previously served a dual purpose; for
one, it allowed a per-flash-chip override, so that AG-AND devices could
use a different erase command than other NAND. These AND devices were
dropped in commit 14c6578683 (mtd: nand:
remove AG-AND support). On the other hand, some drivers (denali and
doc-g4) need to use this sort of callback to implement
controller-specific erase operations.
To make the latter operation easier for some drivers (e.g., ST's new BCH
NAND driver), it helps if the command dispatch and wait functions can be
lumped together, rather than called separately.
This patch does two things:
1. Pull the call to chip->waitfunc() into chip->erase_cmd(), and return
the status from this callback
2. Rename erase_cmd() to just erase(), since this callback does a
little more than just send a command

The NAND command helpers tend to automatically shift the column address
for x16 bus devices, since most commands expect a word address, not a
byte address. The Read ID command, however, expects an 8-bit address
(i.e., 0x00, 0x20, or 0x40 should not be translated to 0x00, 0x10, or
0x20).
This fixes the column address for a few drivers which imitate the
nand_base defaults. Note that I don't touch sh_flctl.c, since it already
handles this problem slightly differently (note its comment "READID is
always performed using an 8-bit bus").
I have not tested this patch, as I only have x8 parts up for testing at
this point. Hopefully that can change soon...

According to the Open NAND Flash Interface Specification (ONFI) Revision
3.1 "Parameters are always transferred on the lower 8-bits of the data
bus." for the Get Features and Set Features commands.
So using read_buf and write_buf is wrong for 16-bit wide nand chips as
they use I/O[15:0]. The Get Features command is easily fixed using 4
times the read_byte callback. For Set Features implement a new
overwritable callback "write_byte". Still I expect the default to work
just fine for all controllers and making it overwriteable was just done
for symmetry.

Micron provides READ RETRY support via the ONFI vendor-specific
parameter block (to indicate how many read-retry modes are available)
and the ONFI {GET,SET}_FEATURES commands with a vendor-specific feature
address (to support reading/switching the current read-retry mode).
The recommended sequence is as follows:
1. Perform PAGE_READ operation
2. If no ECC error, we are done
3. Run SET_FEATURES with feature address 89h, mode 1
4. Retry PAGE_READ operation
5. If ECC error and there are remaining supported modes, increment the
mode and return to step 3. Otherwise, this is a true ECC error.
6. Run SET_FEATURES with feature address 89h, mode 0, to return to the
default state.
This patch implements the chip->setup_read_retry() callback for
Micron and fills in the chip->read_retries.
Tested on Micron MT29F32G08CBADA, which supports 8 read-retry modes.
The Micron vendor-specific table was checked against the datasheets for
the following Micron NAND:
Needs retry Cell-type Part number Vendor revision Byte 180

Modern MLC (and even SLC?) NAND can experience a large number of
bitflips (beyond the recommended correctability capacity) due to drifts
in the voltage threshold (Vt). These bitflips can cause ECC errors to
occur well within the expected lifetime of the flash. To account for
this, some manufacturers provide a mechanism for shifting the Vt
threshold after a corrupted read.
The generic pattern seems to be that a particular flash has N read retry
modes (where N = 0, traditionally), and after an ECC failure, the host
should reconfigure the flash to use the next available mode, then retry
the read operation. This process repeats until all bitfips can be
corrected or until the host has tried all available retry modes.
This patch adds the infrastructure support for a
vendor-specific/flash-specific callback, used for setting the read-retry
mode (i.e., voltage threshold).
For now, this patch always returns the flash to mode 0 (the default
mode) after a successful read-retry, according to the flowchart found in
Micron's datasheets. This may need to change in the future if it is
determined that eventually, mode 0 is insufficient for the majority of
the flash cells (and so for performance reasons, we should leave the
flash in mode 1, 2, etc.).

When writing files, errors appear:
Write len 182 but return 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.

The ECC information(ecc step size, ecc strength) which is used to configrure

1.) Why add the ECC information to the nand_chip{} ?
Each nand chip has its requirement for the ECC correctability, such as
"4bit ECC for each 512Byte" or "40bit ECC for each 1024Byte".
This ECC info is very important to the nand controller, such as gpmi.
Take the Micron MT29F64G08CBABA for example, its geometry is
8KiB page size, 744 bytes oob size and it requires 40bit ECC per 1KiB.
If we do not provide the ECC info to the gpmi nand driver, it has to
calculate the ECC correctability itself. The gpmi driver will gets the 56bit
ECC for per 1KiB which is beyond its BCH's 40bit ecc capibility.
The gpmi will quits in this case. But in actually, the gpmi can supports
this nand chip if it can get the right ECC info.
2.) about the new fields.
The @ecc_strength_ds stands for the ecc bits needed within the @ecc_step_ds.
The two fields should be set from the nand chip's datasheets.
For example:
"4bit ECC for each 512Byte" could be:
@ecc_strength_ds = 4, @ecc_step_ds = 512.
"40bit ECC for each 1024Byte" could be:
@ecc_strength_ds = 40, @ecc_step_ds = 1024.
3.) Why do not re-use the @strength and @size in the nand_ecc_ctrl{}?
The @strength and @size in nand_ecc_ctrl{} is used by the nand controller
driver, while the @ecc_strength_ds and @ecc_step_ds are get from the datasheet.

NAND_BBT_SCANEMPTY is a strange, badly-supported option with omap as its
single remaining user.
NAND_BBT_SCANEMPTY was likely used by accident in omap2[1]. And anyway,
omap2 doesn't scan the chip for bad blocks (courtesy of
NAND_SKIP_BBTSCAN), and so its use of this option is irrelevant.
This patch drops the NAND_BBT_SCANEMPTY option.

nand_base.c shouldn't have to know the implementation details of
nand_bbt's in-memory BBT. Specifically, nand_base shouldn't perform the
bit masking and shifting to isolate a BBT entry.
Instead, just move some of the BBT code into a new nand_markbad_bbt()
interface. This interface allows external users (i.e., nand_base) to
mark a single block as bad in the BBT. Then nand_bbt will take care of
modifying the in-memory BBT and updating the flash-based BBT (if
applicable).
