[v6,0/3] Meson: R/W support for pages used by boot ROM

Message

Amlogic's boot ROM code needs that some pages on NAND must be written
in special "short" ECC mode with scrambling enabled. Such pages:
1) Contain some metadata about hardware.
2) Located with some interval starting from 0 offset, until some
   specified offset. Interval and second offset are set in the
   device tree.

This patchset adds R/W support for such pages. To enable it we can setup
it in dts:

    nand-is-boot-medium;
    amlogic,boot-pages = <1024>;
    amlogic,boot-page-step = <128>;

It means that each 128th page in range 0 to 1024 pages will be accessed
in special mode ("short" ECC + scrambling). In practice this feature is
needed when we want to update first block of NAND - driver will enable
required mode by itself using value from device tree.

Changelog:
 v1 -> v2:
  * Rename 'meson,boot-page-XXX' -> 'amlogic,boot-page-XXX'.
  * Add words that 'amlogic,boot-page-step' is measured in pages.
  * Remove words that 'amlogic,boot-page-XXX' depends on 'nand-is-boot-medium'.
  * Make both 'amlogic,boot-page-XXX' depend on each other also, in
    addition to 'nand-is-boot-medium' dependency.
 v2 -> v3:
  * Add quotes to 0001 in dependencies. This fixes 'make dt_binding_check'
    warning.
 v3 -> v4:
  * Rename 'amlogic,boot-page-last' to 'amlogic,boot-pages'.
 v4 -> v5:
  * Update 'description' fields in bindings.
 v5 -> v6:
  * Split patch for meson_nand.c to 2 patches: first is refactoring of
    scrambling mode handling, another is support for special pages for
    boot ROM.
  * Update description and commit message in the bindings patch.
