Currently, when booting from NAND using nand_spl, in the beginning the default
environment is used until later in boot process the dynamic environment is read
out. This way environment variables that must be interpreted early, like the
baudrate or "silent", cannot be modified dynamically and remain at their
default values. Fix this problem by reading out main and redundand (if used)
copies of the environment in the nand_spl code.

This patch removes the now obsolete and additionally wrongly defined
board_nand_init() prototype from nand_spl/nand_boot.c.

Supporting page-aligned reads doesn't incure any sinificant overhead, just
a small change in the algorithm. Also replace in_8 with readb, since there
is no in_8 on ARM.

Also, remove the ctrl variable in favor of passing the constants
directly, and remove redundant (u8) casts.

Note that with older board revisions, NAND boot may only work after a
power-on reset, and not after a warm reset. I don't have a newer board
to test on; if you have a board with a 33MHz crystal, please let me know
if it works after a warm reset.

This patch changes the NAND booting driver nand_spl/nand_boot.c to match
the new infrastructure from the updated NAND subsystem. This NAND
subsystem was recently synced again with the Linux 2.6.22 MTD/NAND
subsystem.

This patch consolidates the 405 and 440 parts of the NAND booting code
selected via CONFIG_NAND_SPL. Now common code is used to initialize the
SDRAM by calling initdram() and to "copy/relocate" to SDRAM/OCM/etc.
Only *after* running from this location, nand_boot() is called.
Please note that the initsdram() call is now moved from nand_boot.c
to start.S. I experienced problems with some boards like Kilauea
(405EX), which don't have internal SRAM (OCM) and relocation needs to
be done to SDRAM before the NAND controller can get accessed. When
initdram() is called later on in nand_boot(), this can lead to problems
with variables in the bss sections like nand_ecc_pos[].

This patch adds support for booting from 2k page sized NAND device
(e.g. Micron 29F2G08AAC).
Tested on AMCC Canyonlands.

The U-Boot NAND booting support is now extended to support ECC
upon loading of the NAND U-Boot image.
Tested on AMCC Sequoia (440EPx) and Bamboo (440EP).

- Add support for PPC440EPx & PPC440GRx
- Add support for PPC440EP(x)/GR(x) NAND controller
in cpu/ppc4xx directory
- Add NAND boot functionality for Sequoia board,
please see doc/README.nand-boot-ppc440 for details
- This Sequoia NAND image doesn't support environment
in NAND for now. This will be added in a short while.
