Subject: [RFC PATCH 01/10] mtd: nand: omap: Use a single hardware controller instance

There is only one NAND controller (ECC generator) that needs to be
shared among multiple devices. So point nand_chip->hwcontrol to
a single omap_hw_controller instance.
This way the NAND base driver can take care of serializing access
to this single controller (via nand_chip->controller->lock)
when multiple NAND devices are present.
