Subject: [PATCH] mtd: nand: Introduce a randomizer layer in the NAND framework

This patch introduce a new layer in the NAND framework to support both HW
and SW randomizers.

This randomization is required on some MLC/TLC NAND chips which do not
support large islands of same patterns.

The randomizer layer defines a nand_rnd_ctrl struct which is intended to
be used by NAND core functions or NAND drivers to randomize/derandomize
data stored on NAND chips.

The implementation can implement any of these functions:
- config: prepare a random transfer to/from the NAND chip
- write_buf: randomize and write data to the NAND chip
- read_buf: read and derandomize data from the NAND chip

read/write_buf functions are always called after a config call.
The config call specify the page, the column within the page and the action
that will take place after the config (either read or write).
If column is set to -1, the randomizer is disabled.
If page is set to -1, we keep working on the same page.

The randomizer layer provides helper functions that choose wether the
randomizer or the chip read/write_buf should be used.
