nand_update_bbt fix

[Andrew McKay]

Hello,

For NAND parts with 2K pages or larger, kmalloc of one erase block will exceed 
128K and fail.  A vmalloc is used in nand_scan_bbt to allocate enough memory for 
one erase block.  This should likely be the case for nand_update_bbt as well.

Not sure the proper way to submit a patch, but here's a diff of the change:
