[PATCH] nanddump: warn when the start address is not page aligned

[Baruch Siach]

nanddump should be consistent with nandwrite, which does not accept non page
aligned start addresses. Thus, non page aligned dumps are useless.

To ease migration only warn for now. Add the plan of making this an error to
feature-removal-schedule.txt.

+2. nanddump: fail when the -s parameter is not page aligned
+
+nanddump should be consistent with nandwrite, and refuse accepting non page 
+aligned start addresses. These dumps are most likely useless, since nandwrite 
+won't write then at this location. Currently only a warning is issued to keep 
+backward compatibility during a transition period. This should become an error 
+after 1.5.0.
