Before you even consider porting this patch, can you please give Thomas'
patch a try (maybe after adjusting the number of blocks to overwrite and
the position of these blocks)? As Miquel said in his reply, we should
handle that at the rawnand level (nand_{base,micron}.c), not in
mtdcore.c.

Regards,

Boris
