mtd: nand: add 'oob_required' argument to NAND {read,write}_page interfaces
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.
