Introduce a fifo_size field to represent the size of the controller's
FIFO buffer, and use it to distinguish that size from the amount
of data bytes to be read from the FIFO.

This is important to support devices with pages larger than the
controller's internal FIFO, that need to read the pages in FIFO-sized
chunks.

In particular, the current code is at least confusing, for it mixes
all the different sizes involved: FIFO size, page size and data size.

This commit starts the cleaning by removing the info->page_size field
that is not currently used. The host->page_size field should also
be removed and use always mtd->writesize instead. Follow up commits
will clean this up.

there is a item in the builtin_flash_types:
{ "4GiB 8-bit",    0xd7ec, 128, 4096,  8,  8, 8192, &timing[1] },

The original host->page_size could be 4096, how can the old code support
this nand with page-size is 4096?

thanks

Ah, nice catch. I completely missed that line!

I've rechecked the PXA3xx spec. but it makes no mention to supporting
4096 (and it doesn't mention the FIFO buffer's size).

On the other side, and AFAIK, the 'splitted' command semantics in the
NFCv2 (the one I'm working on) was added specifically to support
page-size of 4096 and 8192.

In other words, I'm not sure how could the old code support 4096!
The support was adding long ago, in this commit:

So, maybe they can provide some answers. Haojian? Eric?

Hi Ezequiel,

I can't remember all details. The main problem is that I failed to find 
the flash datasheet.
