[PATCH v7] mtd: rawnand: use bit-wise majority to recover the contents of ONFI parameter

Per ONFI specification (Rev. 4.0), if all parameter pages have invalid CRC values, the bit-wise majority may be used to recover the contents of the parameter pages from the parameter page copies present.

v7: change debug print messages
v6: support the cases that srcbufs are not contiguous
v5: make the bit-wise majority functon generic
v4: move the bit-wise majority code in a separate function
v3: fix warning message detected by kbuild test robot
v2: rebase the changes on top of v4.17-rc1
