Enable GPMC's prefetch feature for NAND access. This speeds up NAND read
access a lot by pre-fetching contents in the background and reading them
through the FIFO address.
The current implementation has two limitations:
a) it only works in 8-bit mode
b) it only supports read access
Both is easily fixable by someone who has hardware to implement it.
Note that U-Boot code uses non word-aligned buffers to read data into, and
request read lengths that are not multiples of 4, so both partial buffers
(head and tail) have to be addressed.
Tested on AM335x hardware.

This patch add support for BCH16_ECC to omap_gpmc driver.
*need to BCH16 ECC scheme*
With newer SLC Flash technologies and MLC NAND, and large densities, pagesizes
Flash devices have become more suspectible to bit-flips. Thus stronger
ECC schemes are required for protecting the data.
But stronger ECC schemes have come with larger-sized ECC syndromes which require
more space in OOB/Spare. This puts constrains like;
(a) BCH16_ECC can correct 16 bit-flips per 512Bytes of data.
(b) BCH16_ECC generates 26-bytes of ECC syndrome / 512B.
Due to (b) this scheme can only be used with NAND devices which have enough
OOB to satisfy following equation:
OOBsize per page >= 26 * (page-size / 512)

omap_gpmc.h is a generic header used by OMAP NAND driver for all TI platfoms.
Hence this file should be present in generic folder instead of architecture
specific include folder.
Build tested using: ./MAKEALL -s am33xx -s omap3 -s omap4 -s omap5
