Subject: [PATCH] mtd: rawnand: fix return value check for bad block status
Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2018 14:32:36 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1528880556-20348-1-git-send-email-absahu@codeaurora.org> (raw)

Positive return value from read_oob() is making false BAD
blocks. For some of the NAND controllers, OOB bytes will be
protected with ECC and read_oob() will return number of bitflips.
If there is any bitflip in ECC protected OOB bytes for BAD block
status page, then that block is getting treated as BAD.

Fixes: c120e75e0e7d ("mtd: nand: use read_oob() instead of cmdfunc() for bad block check")
