This driver adds mtd support for the Aspeed AST2500 SoC static memory
controllers :
* Firmware SPI Memory Controller (FMC)
. BMC firmware
. 3 chip select pins (CE0 ~ CE2)
. supports SPI type flash memory (CE0-CE1)
. CE2 can be of NOR type flash but this is not supported by the
driver
* SPI Flash Controller (SPI1 and SPI2)
. host firmware
. 2 chip select pins (CE0 ~ CE1)
. supports SPI type flash memory
Each controller has a memory range on which it maps its flash module
slaves. Each slave is assigned a memory window for its mapping that
can be changed at bootime with the Segment Address Register.
Each SPI flash slave can then be accessed in two modes: Command and
User. When in User mode, accesses to the memory segment of the slaves
are translated in SPI transfers. When in Command mode, the HW
generates the SPI commands automatically and the memory segment is
accessed as if doing a MMIO.
Currently, only the User mode is supported. Command mode needs a
little more work to check that the memory window on the AHB bus fits
the module size.

Add support for the SPI serial flash host controller found on many Intel
CPUs including Baytrail and Braswell. The SPI serial flash controller is
used to access BIOS and other platform specific information. By default the
driver exposes a single read-only MTD device but with a module parameter
"writeable=1" the MTD device can be made read-write which makes it possible
to upgrade BIOS directly from Linux.

This driver add support to the new Atmel QSPI controller embedded into
sama5d2x SoCs. It expects a NOR memory to be connected to the QSPI
controller.

Add SPI-NOR driver for the SPI Flash Interface (SPIFI)
controller that is found on newer NXP MCU devices.
The controller supports serial SPI Flash devices with 1-, 2-
and 4-bit width in either SPI mode 0 or 3. The controller
can operate in either command or memory mode. In memory mode
the Flash is exposed as normal memory and can be directly
accessed by the CPU.

(0) What is the QuadSPI controller?
The QuadSPI(Quad Serial Peripheral Interface) acts as an interface to
one single or two external serial flash devices, each with up to 4
bidirectional data lines.
(1) The QuadSPI controller is driven by the LUT(Look-up Table) registers.
The LUT registers are a look-up-table for sequences of instructions.
A valid sequence consists of four LUT registers.
(2) The definition of the LUT register shows below:
---------------------------------------------------
| INSTR1 | PAD1 | OPRND1 | INSTR0 | PAD0 | OPRND0 |
---------------------------------------------------
There are several types of INSTRx, such as:
CMD : the SPI NOR command.
ADDR : the address for the SPI NOR command.
DUMMY : the dummy cycles needed by the SPI NOR command.
....
There are several types of PADx, such as:
PAD1 : use a singe I/O line.
PAD2 : use two I/O lines.
PAD4 : use quad I/O lines.
....
(3) Test this driver with the JFFS2 and UBIFS:
For jffs2:
-------------
#flash_eraseall /dev/mtd0
#mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock0 tmp
#bonnie++ -d tmp -u 0 -s 10 -r 5
For ubifs:
-------------
#flash_eraseall /dev/mtd0
#ubiattach /dev/ubi_ctrl -m 0
#ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N test -m
#mount -t ubifs ubi0:test tmp
#bonnie++ -d tmp -u 0 -s 10 -r 5

This patch cloned most of the m25p80.c. In theory, it adds a new spi-nor layer.
Before this patch, the layer is like:
MTD
------------------------
m25p80
------------------------
spi bus driver
------------------------
SPI NOR chip
After this patch, the layer is like:
MTD
------------------------
spi-nor
------------------------
m25p80
------------------------
spi bus driver
------------------------
SPI NOR chip
With the spi-nor controller driver(Freescale Quadspi), it looks like:
MTD
------------------------
spi-nor
------------------------
fsl-quadspi
------------------------
SPI NOR chip
New APIs:
spi_nor_scan: used to scan a spi-nor flash.
