mtd: rawnand: add hooks that may be called during nand_scan()
In order to remove the limitation that forbids dynamic allocation in nand_scan_ident(), we must create a path that will be the same for all controller drivers. The idea is to use nand_scan() instead of the widely used nand_scan_ident()/nand_scan_tail() couple. In order to achieve this, controller drivers will need to adjust some parameters between these two functions depending on the NAND chip wired on them. This takes the form of two new hooks (->{attach,detach}_chip()) that are placed in a new nand_controller_ops structure, which is then attached to the nand_controller object at driver initialization time. ->attach_chip() is called between nand_scan_ident() and nand_scan_tail(), and ->detach_chip() is called in the error path of nand_scan() and in nand_cleanup(). Note that some NAND controller drivers don't have a dedicated nand_controller object and instead rely on the default/dummy one embedded in nand_chip. If you're in this case and still want to initialize the controller ops, you'll have to manipulate chip->dummy_controller directly. Last but not least, it's worth mentioning that we plan to move some of the controller related hooks placed in nand_chip into nand_controller_ops to make the separation between NAND chip and NAND controller methods clearer.
