[PATCH v2] MTD: Fix Orion NAND driver compilation with ARM OABI

We must tell GCC to use even register for variable passed
to ldrd instruction. Without this patch GCC 4.2.1 puts this
variable to r2/r3 on EABI and r3/r4 on OABI, so force it to
r2/r3. This does not change anything when EABI and OABI
compilation works OK.
Without this patch and with OABI I get:
CC drivers/mtd/nand/orion_nand.o
/tmp/ccMkwOCs.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccMkwOCs.s:63: Error: first destination register must be even -- `ldrd r3,[ip]'
make[5]: *** [drivers/mtd/nand/orion_nand.o] Error 1
