[PATCH v2] mtd: rawnand: gpmi: add debugfs entry for BCH geometry

From: Han Xu <han.xu at nxp.com>

Export the BCH geometry parameters via debugfs to aid debugging and
provide the necessary information for legacy kobs-ng tool. The debugfs
directory "gpmi-nand" is created under the root debugfs tree, exposing:

bch_geometry  - blob containing the struct bch_geometry fields
raw_mode      - flag indicating raw mode status

The implementation is guarded with #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_FS to avoid
build failures when debugfs is disabled.

Changes in v2:
- Move dbg_root and dbg_bch_geo into struct gpmi_nand_data to fix
  use-after-free on device unbind.
- Replace debugfs_create_file_full() with debugfs_create_bool() to
  expose the raw_mode flag.
- Register a devm cleanup action to call debugfs_remove_recursive() on
  driver removal.
