When booting from NAND, its important to know the correct page size. When
the NAND is used as the boot source, four dedicated pins are used to configure
the correct page size and address cycles. These pins can be read back in one
of the NFC registers to parametrize the load function.
This patch also extends the read routine to support more than four address
cycles on demand.
BTW: At least some mini2440s are misconfigured to use five address cycles for
a NAND device that is known to need only four address cycles. In this case the
vendor is at our side: This NAND simply ignores any additional address cycles
than required.

The default configuration of the current 2.6.37 kernel uses a flash based BBT.
So, barebox must also use one, to be in sync with the kernel about bad blocks
in the flash.
Due to the used OOB layout, the generic BBT description coming with the
framework can be used.
