The hwcontrol function enforced a step by step state machine
for any kind of hardware chip access. Let the hardware driver
know which control bits are set and inform it about a change
of the control lines. Let the hardware driver write out the
command and address bytes directly. This gives a peformance
advantage for address bus controlled chips and simplifies the
quirks in the hardware drivers.

First step of modularizing ECC support.
- Move ECC related functionality into a seperate embedded data structure
- Get rid of the hardware dependend constants to simplify new ECC models

The _board_ driver needs to be mtd->owner, and it in turn pins the
nand.ko module. Fix them all to actually do that, and fix nand.ko not to
overwrite it -- and also to check that the caller sets it, if the caller
is a module.

__ioremap is an architecture private interface and must not be used
by drivers when the architecture independent interface will do just
as well. Switch the ipaq drivers to use the correct interface.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
