Writing/updating boot image in nand device is not
straight forward in i.MX6 platform and it requires
boot control block(BCB) to be configured.
It becomes difficult to use uboot 'nand' command to
write BCB since it requires platform specific attributes
need to be taken care of.
It is even difficult to use existing msx-nand.c driver by
incorporating BCB attributes like mxs_dma_desc does
because it requires change in mtd and nand command.
So, cmd_nandbcb implemented in arch/arm/mach-imx
BCB contains two data structures, Firmware Configuration Block(FCB)
and Discovered Bad Block Table(DBBT). FCB has nand timings,
DBBT search area, page address of firmware.
On summary, nandbcb update will
- erase the entire partition
- create BCB by creating 2 FCB/DBBT block followed by
1 FW block based on partition size and erasesize.
- fill FCB/DBBT structures
- write FW/SPL on FW1
- write FCB/DBBT in first 2 blocks
for nand boot, up on reset bootrom look for FCB structure in
first block's if FCB found the nand timings are loaded for
further reads. once FCB read done, DTTB will load and finally
firmware will be loaded which is boot image.
Refer section "NAND Boot" from doc/imx/common/imx6.txt for more usage
information.

While converting CONFIG_SYS_[DI]CACHE_OFF to Kconfig, there are instances
where these configuration items are conditional on SPL. This commit adds SPL
variants of these configuration items, uses CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(), and updates
the configurations as required.

The initialization of the NAND in SPL hard-coded ecc.bytes,
ecc.size, and ecc.strength which may work for some NAND parts,
but it not appropriate for others. With the pending patch
"mxs_nand: Fix BCH read timeout error on boards requiring ECC"
the driver can auto configure the ECC when these entries are
blank. This patch has been tested in NAND flash with oob 64
and oob 128.

mxs_nand_init_dma is only referenced from mxs_nand.c. It's not
referenced in any headers or outside code, so this patch
defines it as static.

The LogicPD board uses a Micron Flash with ECC. To boot this from
SPL, the ECC needs to be correctly configured or the BCH engine
times out.

NAND flavors, like serial and parallel, have a lot in common and would
benefit to share code. Let's move raw (parallel) NAND specific code in a
raw/ subdirectory, to ease the addition of a core file in nand/ and the
introduction of a spi/ subdirectory specific to SPI NANDs.
