abb1cd00e6 mtd: atmel_nand: make PMECC lookup table and offset property optional
If there is no PMECC lookup table stored in ROM, or lookup table offset is
not specified, PMECC driver should build it in DDR by itself.

That make the PMECC driver work for some board which doesn't have PMECC
lookup table in ROM.

The PMECC use the BCH algorithm, so based on the build_gf_tables()
function in lib/bch.c, we can build the Galois Field lookup table.

For more information can refer to section 5.4 of PMECC controller
application note:

1c7b874d33 mtd: at91: atmel_nand: add Programmable Multibit ECC controller support
The Programmable Multibit ECC (PMECC) controller is a programmable binary
BCH(Bose, Chaudhuri and Hocquenghem) encoder and decoder. This controller
can be used to support both SLC and MLC NAND Flash devices. It supports to
generate ECC to correct 2, 4, 8, 12 or 24 bits of error per sector of data.

To use PMECC in this driver, the user needs to set the address and size of
PMECC, PMECC error location controllers and ROM. And also needs to pass the
correction capability, the sector size and ROM lookup table offsets via dt.

This driver has been tested on AT91SAM9X5-EK and AT91SAM9N12-EK with JFFS2,
YAFFS2, UBIFS and mtd-utils.

3c3796cc32 [MTD] [NAND] rename at91_nand -> atmel_nand: internal symbols
This is basically s/at91_nand/atmel_nand/g with some manual inspection.

d4f4c0aa8e [MTD] [NAND] rename at91_nand -> atmel_nand: file names and Kconfig
The AT91 NAND driver needs just a few tiny modifications to work on
AVR32 as well. Rename it atmel_nand to reflect this.

Also move the ECC register definitions into drivers/mtd/nand since they
are only useful to the atmel_nand driver, and get rid of the useless
filename at the top of each file.
