Subject: [PATCH 1/3] atmel_nand speedup via {read,write}s{b,w}()

From: David Brownell <david-b@...bell.net>

This uses __raw_{read,write}s{b,w}() primitives to access data on NAND
chips for more efficient I/O.

On an arm926 with memory clocked at 100 MHz, this reduced the elapsed
time for a 64 MByte read by 16%.  ("dd" /dev/mtd0 to /dev/null, with
an 8-bit NAND using hardware ECC and 128KB blocksize.)

Also some minor section tweaks:

  - Use platform_driver_probe() so no pointer to probe() lingers
    after that code has been removed at run-time.

  - Use __exit and __exit_p so the remove() code will normally be
    removed by the linker.

Since these buffer read/write calls are new, this increases the runtime
code footprint (by 88 bytes on my build, after the section tweaks).

Another round of patches for the newly renamed Atmel NAND driver
coming up. I'm hoping this can join the existing bunch of patches for
2.6.27.

Out of curiosity, how did you solve the merge conflict with the ARM
tree?
