[PATCH v2 0/2] mtd: rawnand: vf610_nfc: fix reads on chips with more than 64 bytes of OOB

[Mehmet Fide <mehmet.fide@gmail.com>]

From: Mehmet Fide <mehmet.fide@screeningeagle.com>

The driver only implements the 64-byte OOB format the controller
transfers, so chips with a larger OOB (the Colibri VF61's MX30LF4G28AC
has 112 bytes) stopped working when nanddev_init() began restoring
mtd->oobsize after ->attach_chip(): the parity moved and every
ECC-protected read failed, including the BBT and everything UBI needs.

v2 takes the approach Miquel suggested instead of clamping the memory
organization: the detected OOB size stays, the driver gets its own
mtd_ooblayout_ops computed on the first 64 OOB bytes, and the data
paths keep transferring exactly those 64 spare bytes, so the on-flash
format stays identical to U-Boot and to the kernels that clamped.

Tested on a Colibri VF61 (112-byte OOB): mtd->oobsize now reads 112,
the flash-based BBT is found and read without errors, UBIFS written by
a clamping kernel mounts read-write, and an 8 MiB write/read-back
returns identical data with zero corrected bits. Regression-tested on a
Colibri VF50 (64-byte OOB chip): unchanged layout, oobavail and clean
ECC counters.

The two pre-existing issues the Sashiko report flagged on v1 are sent
as a separate series, as they are independent of this fix.
