Hi,

After reading many board/*/flash.c and writing customer board driver for
one of my customer, I think the current flash interface can be improved.

I suggest adding a subdir $(TOPDIR)/include/flash/ and putting flash
chip information here. When you use some kinds of flash chips, just
include relevant header files.

If we go further, many information in $(TOPDIR)/include/flash.h can be
put into these header files.

And, even flash operation (non-CFI) sample code can be put into
$(TOPDIR)/contrib/flash/.

The following is an example of AMD Spansion S29AL016M chip.
