Alexey,

my investigation showed that this "random output" command is not
supported by all flashes. ST-micro NANDs seems to support it
(I checked 2 manuals), while Sumsung NANDs do not (checked manual
for K9XXG08UXA). This means your implementation will break many
systems and should be either fixed or reverted.
