There is an extra check in JFFS2 which makes shure that the newly=20
earased flash eraseblock contains only 0xFF bytes. In fact, this is=20
overkill and I'd like to move that check into the JFFS2 debugging stuff.

JFFS2 issued the erase command then found that the block contains some=20
trash. That's not JFFS2's fault. Dig your flash driver/hardware.
