Subject: [PATCH] [MTD][NAND] pxa3xx: fix non-page-aligned reads

Reads from non-page-aligned addresses were broken because while the
address to read from was correctly written to NDCB*, a full page was
always read. Fix this by ignoring the column and only using the page
address.

I suspect this whole-page behavior is due to the controller's need to
read the entire page in order to generate correct ECC. In the non-ECC
case this could be optimized to use the column address, and to set the
read length to what is being requested rather than the length of an
entire page.
