Hi all

Last I recall, an interface function to read the autoplaced available oob data 
(as required by YAFFS, and perhaps others) was imminent. 

There is nand_read_oob() which reads the **raw** oob data, but there is no 
function that allows just reading the AUTOPLACED stuff, AFAIK.

Did this happen? If so I can't see it in CVS.

Is anyone actively working on this?

Thanx
