Hi Lei,

I like this idea very much. There are several places for improvement,
though, you mind take a look?

Note the above statement is executed after a do_cmd() is done, so
info->retcode contains a valid return code. While the actual code
to perform the command has been moved to below.

For each transaction, there are three steps:

  1. prepare/fill the command
  2. perform the command
  3. handle the return status

I actually though of merging steps 2) and 3) together, but step
3) could be different, and that the timeout for different type of
commands might be different, that's why I introduced the do_cmd()
function.

Maybe for those cases where commands are not executed, just simply
return will avoid introducing this exec_cmd variable.

I saw __readid() is replaced by pxa3xx_nand_cmdfunc(NAND_CMD_READID)
in the code below.  Is it possible to completely remove this function
now??
