Subject: [PATCH v1 0/2] Meson: R/W support for pages used by boot ROM

Amlogic's boot ROM code needs that some pages on NAND must be written
in special "short" ECC mode with scrambling enabled. Such pages:
1) Contain some metadata about hardware.
2) Located with some interval starting from 0 offset, until some
   specified offset. Interval and second offset are set in the
   device tree.

This patchset adds R/W support for such pages. To enable it we can setup
it in dts:

    nand-is-boot-medium;
    meson,boot-page-last = <1024>;
    meson,boot-page-step = <128>;

It means that each 128th page in range 0 to 1024 pages will be accessed
in special mode ("short" ECC + scrambling). In practice this feature is
needed when we want to update first block of NAND - driver will enable
required mode by itself using value from device tree.
