On Rockchip SoCs the first boot stages are written on NAND
with help of manufacturer software that uses a different format
then the MTD framework. Skip the automatic BBT scan with the
NAND_SKIP_BBTSCAN option so that the original content is unchanged
during the driver probe.
The NAND_NO_BBM_QUIRK option allows us to erase bad blocks with
the nand_erase_nand() function and the flash_erase command.
With these options the user has the "freedom of choice" by neutral
access mode to read and write in whatever format is needed.

Changes V3:
  Change prefixes

Changed V2:
  reword

I'm aware that the maintainer finds it "awful",
but it's absolute necessary to:
1: read/write boot blocks in user space without touching original content
2: format a NAND for MTD either with built in or external driver module

So we keep it include in this serie.
