Document programming of the chip including the redundant locations that the ROM will check.

In +this example to program the NAND we assume that an SD card has been +inserted with the files to write in the first SD slot and that mtdparts +have been configured correctly for the board. As a time saving measure we +load MLO into memory in one location, copy it into the three locatations +that the ROM checks for additional valid copies, then load U-Boot into +memory.
