Hello,

This series make a quite deep change in the NAND framework. Until now,
the NAND chip identification phase could be done in two manners from the
controller driver perspective:

1/ Call nand_scan()

  or

1/ Call nand_scan_ident()
2/ Do some controller-dependent configuration
3/ Call nand_scan_tail().

The fact that the identifaction could be split in two operations
involved that in the NAND framework, it was not possible to do any
dynamic allocation without risking a memory leak. What if the core
allocates a structure, then the driver between nand_scan_ident() and
nand_scan_tail() decides it cannot handle the chip and errors out?
The structure allocated by the core is lost: it is a memory leak.

To avoid this situation, we migrate all drivers to use nand_scan(). But
because drivers need to do some configuration before nand_scan_tail(), a
first hook is offered, embedded in the nand_ecc_ctrl structure, called
->attach_chip(). Drivers that need to tweak their configuration after
nand_scan_ident() should implement it. Any dynamically allocated space
in ->attach_chip() must be freed in the second hook: ->detach_chip().

The ->detach_chip() does not have to be called upon error in the
controller driver probe function. The nand_realease() helper already
exists for that and will do the call if needed. Of course, this helper
must be called on error after a successful nand_scan(), just like
before.

Once all drivers not using nand_scan() (yet) are migrated,
nand_scan_ident() and nand_scan_tail() are unexported and only available
internally.

A previous work [1] removed the ONFI/JEDEC parameter pages and instead
allocated a nand_parameters structure in nand_chip, embedding both
generic entries and ONFI-related ones. The deal was, once dynamic
allocation possible, allocate in nand_scan_ident() the ONFI strcuture
only if actually needed. This is done in the last patches.

All these changes have been tested with the GPMI driver and tested by
the 0-day robot.

Thank you,
Miquèl
