Add support for slc-mode implemented in Linux for the Toshiba
TC58TEG5DCLTA00 NAND and Hynix H27UCG8T2ETR NAND flash found on the NTC
CHIP. This requires the addition of a paired-pages scheme, a new
parameter for MTD partitions of slc-mode, and setting the correct
paired-pages scheme for the TC58TEG5DCLTA00  and H27UCG8T2ETR flash
chips. I will likely need some help making sure this is consistent with
the quality expected of upstream.

Changes since V2:
 - Copied upstream Linux implementation of mtd_erase to fix an issue
   with creating new ubi partitions.
 - Implemented paired page scheme and added support for Hynix flash
   chip. Based on a cursory reading of the datasheet it appears to use
   the same pairing scheme as the Toshiba chip.

Changes since V1:

 - Updated mtd_read and mtd_write to match upstream Linux.
 - Additional mtd_get_master to match upstream Linux.
 - Removed notes about ubifs not working, because it is now.

Add support for setting the slc-mode parameter for a given MLC NAND
device. This allows a given device to write only to the first set
of paried pages to help reduce data corruption and increase reliability
of the NAND.

I haven't tested these patches extensively yet, but thus far I have
been able to boot from a ubifs partition from a vmlinuz, initramfs,
devicetree, and boot.scr from said partition. I have also been able
to create a new empty partition from within U-Boot.

As I am unfamiliar with NAND and have limited experience with the MTD
subsystems, please let me know what else I can do to improve the driver.

Thank you.

+ * The term "pair" is used here, even though TLC NANDs might group pages by 3

+ * the same cell. Pairs are then indexed in ascending order.
+ *
+ * @group is defining the position of a page in a given pair. It can also be
+ * seen as the bit position in the cell: page attached to bit 0 belongs to
+ * group 0, page attached to bit 1 belongs to group 1, etc.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ * The H27UCG8T2BTR-BC datasheet describes the following pairing scheme:
+ *
+ *		group-0		group-1
+ *
+ *  pair-0	page-0		page-4
+ *  pair-1	page-1		page-5
+ *  pair-2	page-2		page-8
+ *  ...
+ *  pair-127	page-251	page-255
+ *
+ *
+ * Note that the "group" and "pair" terms were extracted from Samsung and
+ * Hynix datasheets, and might be referenced under other names in other
+ * datasheets (Micron is describing this concept as "shared pages").

Add pairing info for the Toshiba TC58TEG5DCLTA00 NAND so that we may
utilize slc-mode emulation for enhanced reliability and compatibility
with upstream Linux.

Add pairing info for the Hynix H27UCG8T2ETR NAND so that we may utilize
slc-mode emulation for enhanced reliability and compatibility with
upstream Linux.

I have checked with the team at #mtd and they can confirm based on
a cursory reading of the datasheet for this flash chip it appears to
use the same dist3 pairing scheme used by the Toshiba NAND which
already supports dist3 today in mainline Linux.
