When a flash cmd is called using the flash name the autoprobe
function is not called. autoprobe is called if flash_command_get_bank
falls through to get_flash_bank_by_num.
This makes both get_flash_bank_by_name and get_flash_bank_by_num
behave the same.

This adds a virtual flash bank driver that allows virtual banks to
be defined that refer to an existing flash bank.
For example the real address for bank0 on the pic32 is 0x1fc00000
but the user program will either be in kseg0 (0xbfc00000) or
kseg1 (0x9fc00000).
This also means that gdb will be aware of all the read only flash
addresses.

Every time command "flash probe #" is executed, memory
structures are re-allocated without preventive free()
of former areas, causing memory leak.
Also, memory allocation does not check return value,
determining segmentation fault in case of out of memory.

It might be possible to get this target going without
RCLK, but it would require more careful analysis and
usage of the reset events.

the jtag cfg.
- Add missing id for the str750 that is also in the jtag chain.

This patch add support of iMX27 nand flash controller. This is based on
driver for imx31 nand flash controller.
OOB functionality is not fully working. As in mx31 controller, mx2 NFC
has a bug that swap two bytes between SPARE and MAIN buffer.
I used this driver for several months and no problems appear.
I was finally able to figure out the cause of this problem. There are two
parts to the patch. The first patch modifies the configuration file I
originally generated for the Atmel AT91SAM9G20 board and achieves the
following:
+++ Splits the reset-init handler into a reset-start handler for some of the
initial configuration activities and keeps the remainder in the reset-init
handler as was the case before. This was the real issue that was causing
the timing problems I identified before. This solution was confirmed with
an o-scope on actual target hardware.
+++ Adds a new instruction in the reset-start handler to disable fast memory
accesses in the reset-start handler. When the target jtag clock is started
out at 2 kHz during system clock initialization, memory writes (i.e.
register write to enable external reset pin -- basically to RSTC_MR) are
naturally slow and cause GDB keep-alive issues (refer to PATCH 2/2 for
additional fixes).
+++ Modifies the configuration file to use srst_only reset action. The
reset-start/reset-init handler split also now allows the correct behavior to
be used in the configuration file (previously had to use both SRST and TRST
even though only SRST is actually used and connected on the evaluation
board).
+++ Adds external NandFlash configuration support to take advantage of flash
driver added earlier. Doesn't fix any bugs but adds functionality that was
marked as TBD before and thrown in when I did other work on the
configuration file.

This second half of the patch is proposed to clean up some GDB keep alive
issues on arm7_9 targets that start up with very slow clocks. If an attempt
is made to write to key registers on the processor with a slow jtag speed,
GDB timeout warnings appear on the console (at least mine) when "reset halt"
or "reset init" commands are issued from the gdb client:

I added additional keep alive steps in areas that troubleshooting revealed
were causing problems. I only did this however for non-fast write memory
accesses. I don't think most people would be using fast memory accesses to
write to memory when the jtag and system clocks are slow anyway.
If you disagree with my feeling, think there is a more elegant way to handle
the problem, or think the patch will cause other unforeseen problems with
other targets, let me know. As you can see below, the patch does eliminate
the problem on my development station and I suspect that it will benefit
others.

tcl "puts" didn't work because the logging code sensored strings
that did not include a '\n'. The correct thing is to sensor
empty strings, which are used to keep gdb connection alive.
The tcl "puts" code broke apart strings which do contain '\n' in
order to implement the -nonewline argument, which is how it
got hurt by the bug in log.c

Page reads using hwecc4_infix layout segfaulted for check_bad_blocks because
the read assumed a valid data buffer, which check_bad_blocks does not use
(it only passes a 6 byte buffer for the start of OOB).
This version copes with undersized or missing data or oob buffers and uses
random read commands within the page to skip unwanted areas of data/OOB for
speed.
NOTE: Running check_bad_blocks with this layout will be reading infix
OOB locations, not manufacturer bad block markers. This means that if you
check blocks written in infix layout they will appear good, but manufacturer-
marked bad blocks may also appear good.
If you want to scan for manufactuer-marked bad blocks, you need to enable
raw_access before running check_bad_blocks, or use the non-infix layout.
