[PATCH V3 0/5] MXS nand fixes in SPL

Those patches come after some testing of failing in factory on some unit. We found out that the bootrom imx loader was not able to handling badblock. This can be a limit of the implementation right now in imx8mn. Anyway not all the imx platform has the support of this loader. I found some problems on the implementation so I have fixed it up according the experience of Sitara (coming from Dario). I tested only using a Fit Image as a flash container. This version add in the series the fix of cmd_nandbcb and the fix of spl_nand load. I can imagine that a lot of boards and users are affected. I have started to backport this changes in some older uboot and adapt it. Move BSH board using the spl loading instead the romapi

Move the hook after nand_scan_tail is called. The hook must be replaced to the mxs specific one but those must to be assignment later in the probe function.
With this fix markbad is working again. Before this change:

The specific implementation was having bug. Those bugs are since the beginning of the implementation. Some manufactures can already experience this bug in their SPL code. This bug can be more visible on architecture that has complicated boot process like imx8mn. Older version of uboot can be affected if the bad block appear in correspoding of the beginning of u-boot image. In order to adjust the function we scan from the first erase block.
The problematic part of old code was in this part:
while (is_badblock(mtd, offs, 1)) { page = page + nand_page_per_block; /* Check i we've reached the end of flash. */ if (page >= mtd->size >> chip->page_shift) { free(page_buf); return -ENOMEM; } }
Even we fix it adding increment of the offset of one erase block size , we don't fix the problem, because the first erase block where the image start is not checked. The code was tested on an imx8mn where the boot rom api was not able to skip it. This code is used by other architecures like imx6 and imx8mm

The badblock should be skipped properly in reading and writing. Fix the logic. The bcb struct is written, skipping the bad block, so we need to read using the same logic. This was tested create bad block in the area and then flash it and read it back.

If the fitImage has some bad block in fit image area, the offset must be recalulcated. This should be done always. After implementing it in mxs now is possible to call the function even for that platform.
