Hi Ada,
Thank you for looking into this. Internally I've written the same patch as
yours and it works fine.

What's more interesting is the issue happens depending on chip individual
difference or aging. Among 3 chips tested, two with date code of 1933 and
one with 2223. The 1st one has many ECC errors as in the mail, 2nd one
has less errors, while the 3rd one passed the nandtest without error.
Maybe that's why this issue is overlooked.

Best regards,
