Subject: [PATCH v4 0/3] Fixes for Rockchip NAND controller driver

This serie contains various fixes for the Rockchip NAND controller
driver that showed up while testing boot block writing.

Fixed are:
Always copy hwecc PA data to/from oob_poi buffer in order to be able
to read/write the various boot block layouts.
Add option to safely probe the driver on a NAND with unknown data layout.
Fix oobfree layout.

Changed V4:
Reduce subject size
Add 'Fixes:' tag
Reword

Changed V3:
Change patch order, layout fixes first
Change prefixes
Reword
State that patches break all existing jffs2 users

Changed V2:
Add tag
Add manufacturer ops
Reword

Subject: [PATCH v4 1/3] mtd: rawnand: rockchip: fix oobfree offset and description

Rockchip boot blocks are written per 4 x 512 byte sectors per page.
Each page with boot blocks must have a page address (PA) pointer in OOB
to the next page.

The currently advertised free OOB area starts at offset 6, like
if 4 PA bytes were located right after the BBM. This is wrong as the
PA bytes are located right before the ECC bytes.

Fix the layout by allowing access to all bytes between the BBM and the
PA bytes instead of reserving 4 bytes right after the BBM.

This change breaks existing jffs2 users.

Example:

Wrong free OOB offset starts at OOB6:
oob_region->offset = NFC_SYS_DATA_SIZE + 2;
= 4 + 2
= 6

oob_region->length = rknand->metadata_size - NFC_SYS_DATA_SIZE - 2;
= 32 - 4 - 2
= 26

Together with this length above it overlaps a reserved space for the
boot blocks Page Address(PA)

chip->oob_poi buffer layout for 8 steps:

BBM0 BBM1 OOB2 OOB3 | OOB4 OOB5 OOB6 OOB7

OOB8 OOB9 OOB10 OOB11 | OOB12 OOB13 OOB15 OOB15
OOB16 OOB17 OOB18 OOB19 | OOB20 OOB21 OOB22 OOB23

OOB24 OOB25 OOB26 OOB27 | PA0 PA1 PA2 PA3

ECC0 ECC1 ECC2 ECC3 | ... ... ... ...

Fix by new offset at OOB2:
oob_region->offset = 2;

The full range of free OOB with 8 steps runs from OOB2
till/including OOB27.
