This patch does minor code reorganization for raw reads.
Currently the raw read is required for complete page but for
subsequent patches related with erased codeword bit flips
detection, only few CW should be read. So, this patch adds
helper function and introduces the read CW bitmask which
specifies which CW reads are required in complete page.

I am not sure this is the right approach for subpage reads. If the
controller supports it, you should just enable it in chip->options.


Thanks Miquel.

It is internal to this file only. This patch makes one static helper
function which provides the support to read subpages.

I don't understand this. chip->ecc.steps is constant, right? So you
always ask for the same subpage?

We need to do raw read for subpages in which we got uncorrectable
error in next patch for erased page bitflip detection. This patch does
reorganization of raw read and moves common code in helper function
nandc_read_page_raw.

For nomral raw read, all the subpages will be read so
BIT(chip->ecc.steps) - 1 is used for qcom_nandc_read_page_raw.

While for erased page raw read, only those sub pages will be
read for which the controller gives the uncorrectable error.

Abhishek
