Move the bulk of the flash.h file into flash/nor/core.h, leaving an
empty husk that will be removed in the next patch.
The NOR driver structure is an implementation detail, so move it into
its own private header file <flash/nor/driver.h> along with helper
declaration for finding them by name.
Splits the exec mode commands out of flash.c into the flash/nor/ files.
The routines used by these high-level commands are moved into nor/core.c,
with their internal declarations placed in nor/imp.h.
Fixes distribution of <flash/nor/core.h> header.
Clean up arm_semihosting() entry a bit, comment some issues and just
which SVC opcodes are getting intercepted. Microcontroller profile
cores will need a new entry, since they use BKPT instead (and don't
have either SVC mode or an SPSR register).

Store a flag and errno in in "struct arm".

The newly moved flash TCL routines access the internals of the module
too much. Fix the layering issues by adding new core NOR flash APIs:
<flash/nor/core.h>:
- flash_driver_find_by_name() - self-descriptive
<flash/nor/imp.h>:
- flash_bank_add() - encapsulates adding banks to bank list
- flash_bank_list() - encapsulates retreiving bank list
This allows the externs in flash/nor/imp.h to be removed, and
these mechanisms may now be re-used by other flash module code.
Moves the top-level 'flash' command handlers into flash/nor/tcl.c,
with flash/nor/imp.h providing an internal implementation header
to share non-public API components.
After previous efforts, only one Jim routine remained in jtag/core.c,
and moving it to jtag/tcl.c painlessly finishes separating these layers.
The headers need separating, but the implementation is clean.
When calling module_register_commands, the return value needs to be
checked for failures. Instead of duplicating code, use an array of
function pointers to the identical registration functions to iterate
over during startup.
Semihosting enables code running on an ARM target to use the
I/O facilities on the host computer. The target application must
be linked against a library that forwards operation requests by
using the SVC instruction that is trapped at the Supervisor Call
vector by the debugger. The "hosted" library version provided
with CodeSourcery's Sourcery G++ Lite for ARM EABI is one example.
This is currently available for ARM9 processors, but any ARM
variant should be able to support this with little additional work.
Tested using binaries compiled with Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q1-161
and ARM RVCT 3.0.

Updates the ARM NAND I/O code to look at and update the op
field of arm_nand_data to reflect the last operation performed.
It uses this field to copy the correct code to the target in the
case where the struct is used for reads and writes.
Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
Modify the arm_nand_data struct to better support both read and
write operations while using the same struct. An additional
field was added, and initialized, to record the last operation
so that the correct code can be loaded to the working area.
