[PATCH v2 00/16] DocG3 fixes and write support

This patchset is aimed at :
 - fixing 5 glitches in the driver
 - add several new functions

The added functions are :
 - add block erase capability
 - add write page capability
 - add powerdown and powerup
 - add multiple floor support
 - add ECC support
 - add docg3 modes support
 - add protection support (DPS areas)

The ECC part should especially be reviewed by Ivan and Mike,
as this is their work (patch "add ECC correction code").

Since V1, Ivan's and Mike's comments have been taken into
account, and nandtest/nanddump/nandwrite testing has been
done, with and without bitflipped data.

Moreover, 3 new patches have been added:
 - fix reading oob+data without correction
   This was triggered by the bitflipped pages tests, and
   fixes cases where we want to read corrupted data.
 - add docg3 modes support
   This actually fixes the read part, as we now read in
   "normal" mode by default rather than in "reliable"
   mode. This is mandatory for nandtest to work, because of
   the "even/odd pages logical AND".
 - add protection support
   This is an evolution to be able to access the whole chip
   in protected chips, as they are in smartphones.

Happy review.
