[RFC PATCH v3 4/4] mtd: rawnand: gpmi: support fast edo timings for mx28

In the i.MX28 manual (MCIMX28RM, Rev. 1, 2010) you can find an example
(15.2.4 High-Speed NAND Timing) of how to configure the GPMI controller
to manage High-Speed ​​NAND devices, so it was wrong to assume that only
i.MX6 can achieve EDO timings.

This patch has been tested on a 2048/64 byte NAND (Micron MT29F2G08ABAEAH4).
Kernel mtd tests:
 - mtd_nandbiterrs
 - mtd_nandecctest
 - mtd_oobtest
 - mtd_pagetest
 - mtd_readtest
 - mtd_speedtest
 - mtd_stresstest
 - mtd_subpagetest
 - mtd_torturetest [cycles_count = 10000000]
run without errors.
