Add support for multiblock erase command. OneNANDs (excluding Flex-OneNAND)
are capable of simultaneous erase of up to 64 eraseblocks which is much
faster.
This changes the erase requests for regions covering multiple eraseblocks
to be performed using multiblock erase.

Better to align like this

I see 100us for this in some versions.  Perhaps Kyungmin can suggest
a value.

Since you have OR'd in the ONENAND_INT_MASTER flag, this doesn't check the individual
flags anymore.  Perhaps you want:

+		if ((intr & intr_flags) != intr_flags)) {

It is more usual to write multiline comments like this:

/*

 * Maximum number of blocks for simultaneous erase is 64.

According to the manual I have you cannot do a multiblock erase
across a chip boundary, so you must exit this loop at the boundary too.

With the chip I had the actual time for 64-eb verify read was in the 
range of 20-30 us but you're right, there are chips for which the 
maximum time is specified to be 100 us. Is ok to just raise this to that 
value? Kyungmin?

Ok, does this apply DDP chips only?

To correctness, It should be 100 as Spec.

Just FYI:
In recent OneNAND chips has 4KiB pagesize doesn't support Multi block
erase feature at my spec.

Right, these chips are not yet support at MTD. After make a patch, we
have to check the multi block erase feature.

Thank you,

Of course, Actually DDP has two chips. can't share the info between chips.
That's the reason to check DDP. :)

Thank you,
