[MTD] [NAND] S3C2410 Allow unset ecc to be ignored for ecc correction
If a block's ecc field is all 0xff, then ignore the ECC correction. This is for systems where some of the blocks, such as the initial cramfs are written without ECC and need to be loaded on start. Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
