[PATCH 0/5] Assorted OMAP2 NAND clean-ups

Hello everyone,

As it was discussed recently in the mailing list, the omap2-nand driver currently
has an issue preventing proper ONFI detection of 16-bit devices (other drivers
may suffer from this same issue).

In an attempt to address such issue, patch 2/5 "mtd: nand: omap2: Fix device
detection path" uses NAND_BUSWIDTH_AUTO (actually discarding any DT property)
and leaves the bus width detection the NAND core code.

I've based the patch in previously sent work by Pekon Gupta, did some work and
added my name on it. I hope it's fine to handle the authorship like this.
Otherwise, feel free to tell.

This has been tested in a Beaglebone black (AM335x) board with a 16-bit Micron
NAND device, both ONFI and array-based detections work fine:

[    1.253200] omap-gpmc 50000000.gpmc: GPMC revision 6.0
[    1.260638] NAND device: Manufacturer ID: 0x2c, Chip ID: 0xcc (Micron MT29F4G16ABADAH4)

[    1.354074] 0x000000780000-0x000010000000 : "File-System"

Also, a quick run of nandtest ends successfully:

$ nandtest /dev/mtd7
ECC corrections: 0
ECC failures   : 0
Bad blocks     : 2
BBT blocks     : 0
Bad block at 0x00000000
Bad block at 0x00520000
[...]
Finished pass 1 successfully

The first patch 1/5 is included just for reference of the DT GPMC configuration
currently in use, together with required pinmuxing, in case anyone feels like
testing. It's not intended to be merged, since it doesn't belong to the Beaglebone
board itself, but instead it's an attached daughter board.

The other patches are just minor cleanups I came across while looking at the code.
As usual, the patchset applies on top of latest l2-mtd's master branch.

Pekon, Brian: Do you think this solution might work for 8-bit and 16-bit devices?

Feel free to comment or provide any feedback!
