[PATCH] mtd: rawnand: samsung: fix pages_per_eraseblock calculation

In samsung_nand_decode_id(), the division by memorg->pagesize binds
tighter than the left shift due to C operator precedence, so the
expression is evaluated as:

    (128 * 1024) << (shift / pagesize)

The shift amount is at most 7 while pagesize is at least 2048, so the
integer division always yields 0 and pages_per_eraseblock ends up
being 131072 regardless of the actual chip geometry.

nanddev_init() later computes mtd->erasesize as
pagesize * pages_per_eraseblock, overwriting the correct value set in
this function with an astronomic value (e.g. 0x20000000, 512 MiB, for
a chip with 4096-byte pages).  MTD then rejects partitions not
starting on such an eraseblock boundary and forces them read-only,
breaking the rootfs on affected boards.

Add parentheses around the shift expression so that the eraseblock
size is computed before being divided by the page size.
