Move bulk of for-loop to a new static command helper function.
Adds handle_nand_list_drivers command handler, registered as
'nand drivers'.
Improves command help text and error reporting.
Move variables to point of first use, reducing their scope.
Add driver_name temporary to help arguments be changed later.
Eliminates the useless 'found' variable, changing the code to terminate
the loop immediate and return its success.
After adding support for referencing banks by name, renames
the COMMAND_HELPERs appropriately:
flash_command_get_bank_by_num -> flash_command_get_bank
nand_command_get_device_by_num -> flash_command_get_device
Add get_flash_bank_by_name (and get_nand_device_by_name) helpers
to retrieves struct flash_bank * (struct nand_device *) given a
driver name and an (optional) driver-specific bank index.
These are used to extend flash_command_get_bank_by_num (and
nand_command_get_device_by_num) to allow all flash (nand) commands to
reference defined banks by name, not just by number.
To avoid some code duplication, add the flash/common.[ch] files to hold
functionality common to both types driver. The first two methods are
helpers for the above routines to find a bank specified by a "name" or
"name.index" string. get_flash_name_index() finds the '.index' portion,
while flash_driver_name_matches() performs the string portion matching.
Updates all command parsing of simple "enable" and "disable" arguments.
A few case in the tree use a tri-state or extended arguments, which
cannot use this simple macro.
Simlifies the xscale icache/dcache command handler logic.
Moves definitions for each layer into their own file, eliminating
layering violations in the built-in TCL code. Updates src/Makefile.am
rules to include all files in the final startup.tcl input file, and
others Makefile.am rules to distribute the new files in our packages.
All ARM cores need to provide obsolete FPA registers in their
GDB register dumps. (Even though cores with floating point
support now generally use some version of VFP...)
Clean up that support a bit by sharing the same dummy registers,
and removing the duplicate copies. Eventually we shouldn't need
to export those dummies.
(This makes the ARMv7-M support include the armv4_5 header, and
cleans up related #includes, but doesn't yet use anything from
there except those dummies.)

Use size_t instead of uint32_t when specifying file sizes. Update all
consumers up through the layers to use size_t when required. These
changes should be safe, but the higher-levels will need to be updated
further to receive the intended benefits (i.e. large file support).
Add error checking for fileio_read and file_write. Previously, all
errors were being silently ignored, so this change might cause some
problems for some people in some cases. However, it gives us the chance
to handle any errors that do occur at higher-levels, rather than burying
our heads in the sand.
Add the 'nand verify' command to perform a dump and fake-write
simultaneously, checking the read bits against those generated by the
write process. Appropriate user documentation for this command has
been added to the user guide as well.
The algorithm presently makes a relatively naive comparison. Some chips
that use ECC may not verify correctly using this implementation, but the
new documentation provides details about this limitation.
This patch eliminates duplicated code in the the NAND 'dump' and 'write'
by using the new static helper functions.
These changes also fix a possible memory leak in nand dump command, in
the case that the dump file failed to open.
Overall, the changes should be functionally equivalent, but the
resulting code will be easier to improve and extend further.
This patch provides helpers APIs that will eliminate duplicated code in
the the NAND 'dump' and 'write' commands by factoring their common code
into static helper functions. These helpers may be useful for creating
new commands, as shown in the final patch to 'verify' flash from a file.
Several previously unreported error conditions now generate messages and
propogate the return codes, such as when the file fails to open and bad
arguments are given. These changes will fix a possible memory leak in
nand dump command, in the case that the dump file failed to open.
Overall, the changes should be functionally equivalent, but the
resulting code will be easier to improve and extend consistently.
Don't include "target.h" from more headers than necessary. This
avoids needless interdependencies and duplicated include paths.
Don't needlessly include it in source files, either.

Lots of files still include it, often through needless
duplicate inclusion of "log.h"; sigh.
This cleans up the inclusion graph a bunch, so there are
fewer inclusion paths, but it doesn't change much otherwise.

Most files in the tree seem to have ended up including this,
and *quite* needlessly ... only code implementing or using
downloadable algorithms actually needs these declarations.
So take it out of the header files which included it, and put
it in files which use it ... reduce needless interdependencies.
Also: "algorithm.h" doesn't need to include "types.h" again;
it already comes from a different header.

Remove the last external user of arm7_9_get_arch_pointers(), and
that annoying downcast utility. Add an is_arm7_9() predicate.
Stop returning specious success codes on various failure paths
in the ARM7/ARM9 commands which used that downcast utility.

The number of command arguments will always be 0 or more, so use
the right type in handlers. This has a cascading effect up through
the layers, but the new COMMAND_HANDLER macros prevented total chaos.
By using CALL_COMMAND_HANDLER, parameters can be reordered, added, or
even removed in inherited signatures, without requiring revisiting
all of the various call sites.
The FLASH_BANK_COMMAND_HANDLER provides an extended command handler
using the __COMMAND_HANDLER macro, whereby changing that macro is
sufficient to update flash handlers with the new signature. It also
enforces uniform style and scope when implementing this handler.
