This patch is essentially an update of u-boot MTD subsystem to
the state of Linux-3.7.1 with exclusion of some bits:

- the update is concentrated on NAND, no onenand or CFI/NOR/SPI
flashes interfaces are updated EXCEPT for API changes.

- new large NAND chips support is there, though some updates
have got in Linux-3.8.-rc1, (which will follow on top of this patch).

To produce this update I used tag v3.7.1 of linux-stable repository.

The update was made using application of relevant patches,
with changes relevant to U-Boot-only stuff sticked together
to keep bisectability. Then all changes were grouped together
to this patch.

isspace() and strim() are not in the typical user-mode string.h, so
put them in a separate compilation unit so that they can be built into
tools that need them independent of the other common string functions.

This allows code shared by u-boot and the linux user-mode tools to link.

strncasecmp() is present as strnicmp() but disabled. Make it available
and define strcasecmp() also. There is a only a small performance penalty
to having strcasecmp() call strncasecmp(), so do this instead of a
standalone function, to save code space.

Update the prototype in arch-specific headers as needed to avoid warnings.

[backport from linux commit 02f8c6aee8df3cdc935e9bdd4f2d020306035dbe]

This is part of the synchronization with the nand driver to the
Linux 3.0 state.

In some cases (e.g. bootm with a elf payload which is already at the right
position) there is a in place copy of data to the same address. Catching this
saves some ms while booting.

Now that the other architecture-specific lib directories have been
moved out of the top-level directory there's not much reason to have the
'_generic' suffix on the common lib directory.

If the destination is aligned, fill ulong values until possible.
Then fill remaining part by byte.

If source and destination are aligned, this copies ulong values
until possible, trailing part is copied by byte. Thanks for the details
to Wolfgang Denk, Mike Frysinger, Peter Tyser, Chris Moore.

This commit gets rid of a huge amount of silly white-space issues.
Especially, all sequences of SPACEs followed by TAB characters get
removed (unless they appear in print statements).

Also remove all embedded "vim:" and "vi:" statements which hide
indentation problems.
