mxc_nand controller fixes

This series fixes several problems in the mxc_nand driver.

- Raw support does not work since hardware ECC is unconditionally
  enabled
- The v2/v3 controller code returns the number of corrected
  bitflips for the whole page for each subpage leading to 
  results for times too high
- The v1 controller code returns the number of corrected bitflips
  only for the last subpage. On 2k page NANDs bitflips in the
  first three subpages remain uncovered

This series fixes these issues. Tested with the mtd test modules
mtd_nandbiterrs, mtd_oobtest, mtd_pagetest and mtd_readtest on
a i.MX27 board which is a v1 controller and a i.MX25 board which
is a v2 controller. Boris, and yes, I just tried some of the userspace
mtd tests aswell, namely nandtest, nandsubpagetest and nandbiterrs
;)

Based on nand/next.
