[PATCH v2 0/3] mtd: rawnand: Sequential page reads

[Miquel Raynal]

Hello, this series is a takeover of Jaime's original support for
sequential cache reads.

When reading sequential pages, the next page can be loaded in cache
without the need for a full new READ operation cycle. We can then
improve throughput a little bit in this case.

In order to support the feature we can split the series into two steps:
* make it possible to check if an operation is possible in advance
* check if sequential page reads (cache reads) are supported and if yes,
  use them on relevant operations rather than regular reads.

Controllers not leveraging the core's helpers might not benefit from
this addition.

Thanks,
Miquèl

Changes in v2:
* Fix a comment added in patch 2 and modified for no reason in patch 3.

Changes in v1:
* Two new patches to speed up the checks and avoid doing them every time
  we need to make a continuous read.
* Rework of Jaime's patch, but the same logic applies, with different
  helpers and variable names.
