New NAND controllers can perform read/write via HW engines which don't expose
OOB data in their DMA mode. To reflect this, we should rework the nand_chip /
nand_ecc_ctrl interfaces that assume that drivers will always read/write OOB
data in the nand_chip.oob_poi buffer. A better interface includes a boolean
argument that explicitly tells the callee when OOB data is requested by the
calling layer (for reading/writing to/from nand_chip.oob_poi).
This patch adds the 'oob_required' parameter to each relevant {read,write}_page
interface; all 'oob_required' parameters are left unused for now. The next
patch will set the parameter properly in the nand_base.c callers, and follow-up
patches will make use of 'oob_required' in some of the callee functions.
Note that currently, there is no harm in ignoring the 'oob_required' parameter
and *always* utilizing nand_chip.oob_poi, but there can be
performance/complexity/design benefits from avoiding filling oob_poi in the
common case. I will try to implement this for some drivers which can be ported
easily.
Note: I couldn't compile-test all of these easily, as some had ARCH
dependencies.

The ecc.read_page() method for nand drivers is changed to return the maximum
number of bitflips that were corrected on any one region covering an ecc step,
This patch doesn't change what the nand code returns to mtd.
This v2 includes the change to the fsl_ifc_nand driver requested by Scott¹.

This fixes a couple of ecc strength values for which I earlier made conservative
guesses, but whose correct values were later determined¹ (thanks Ivan). Also
sets strength for fsl_ifc_nand, which was merged to mainline after the original
patch that set the strength for all drivers.
