From 07604686e808cd93d352172806a7828860f048f5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiro Yamada Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2017 15:45:47 +0900 Subject: mtd: nand: relax ecc.read_page() return value for uncorrectable ECC The comment for ecc.read_page() requires that it should return "0 if bitflips uncorrectable". Actually, drivers could return positive values when uncorrectable bitflips occur. For example, nand_read_page_swecc() is the case. If ecc.correct() returns -EBADMSG for the first ECC sector, and a positive value for the second one, nand_read_page_swecc() returns a positive max_bitflips and increments ecc_stats.failed for the same page. The requirement can be relaxed by tweaking nand_do_read_ops(). Move the max_bitflips calculation below the retry.
