collect code which protects default sectors in a function, called
flash_protect_default. So boardspecific code can call it too.

This patch simplifies the use of CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS_DETECT. By
moving these optional variables and defines into the common code, board
specific code is minimized. Currently only the following board use
this feature:

APC405, IDS8247, TQM834x

And IDS8247 doesn't seem to really need this feature, since its not
updating the bank number variable at all. So this patch removes the
definition of CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS_DETECT from this board port.

This new framework will be used by the upcoming lwmon5 update as well.

On platforms with multiple NOR chips, currently only the first one
can be selected using the "ubi part" command. This patch fixes this
problem by using different names for the NOR "mtd devices".

It also changes the name of the NOR MTD device from "cfi-mtd" to
"norX" (X indexing the device numer) to better match the mtdparts
defaults.

If on your board is more than one flash, you must know
the size of every single flash, for example, for updating
the DTS before booting Linux. So make this function
flash_get_info() extern, and you can have all info
about your flashes.

include/flash.h was commented to say that the address in
flash_info->start was a physical address.  However, from u-boot's
point of view, and looking at most flash code, it makes more
sense for this to be a virtual address.  So I corrected the
comment to indicate that this was a virtual address.

The only flash driver that was actually treating the address
as physical was the mtd/cfi_flash driver.  However, this code
was using it inconsistently as it actually directly dereferenced
the "start" element, while it used map_physmem to get a
virtual address in other places.  I changed this driver so
that the code which initializes the info->start field calls
map_physmem to get a virtual address, eliminating the need for
further map_physmem calls.  The code is now consistent.

The *only* place a physical address should be used is when defining the
flash banks list that is used to initialize the flash_info struct,
usually found in the board config file.

Add cfi-mtd driver, which exports CFI flash to MTD layer.
This allows CFI flash devices to be used from MTD layer.

Building of the new driver is controlled by CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
option. Initialization is done by calling cfi_mtd_init() from
flash_init().

Add interface for flash verbosity control. It allows
to disable output from low-level flash API. It is useful
when calling these low-level functions from context other
than flash commands (for example the MTD/CFI interface
implmentation).
