mtd: nand/docg4: add support for writing in reliable mode
The controller on the docg4 has a "reliable" mode, where consecutive 2k pages are used in parallel. The initial program loader (IPL) on my Treo 680 expects the secondary program loader (SPL) to be written in this mode. This patch adds support for writing data in reliable mode, by way of a module parameter. Support for reading in this mode (as the IPL does) is not supported yet, but alternate (even-numbered) 2k pages written in reliable mode can be read normally (odd-numbered pages will contain junk and generate ecc errors).

+ * program loader (SPL) code in this mode. The SPL is loaded by the initial
+ * program loader (IPL, stored in the docg4's 2k NOR-like region that is mapped
+ * to the reset vector address). This module parameter enables you to use this
+ * driver to write the SPL. When in this mode, no more than 2k of data can be
+ * written at a time, because the addresses do not increment in the normal
+ * manner, and the starting offset must be within an even-numbered 2k region;
+ * i.e., invalid starting offsets are 0x800, 0xa00, 0xc00, 0xe00, 0x1800,
+ * 0x1a00, ... Reliable mode is a special case and should not be used unless
+ * you know what you're doing.
