From: Liu Shuo <b35362 at freescale.com>

Flash_erase -j should fill discrete freeoob areas with required bytes
of JFFS2 cleanmarker in jffs2_check_nand_cleanmarker(). Not just fill
the first freeoob area.

The below is the result without this workaround:

JFFS2: Erase block at 0x00000000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x00004000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x00008000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x0000c000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x00010000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x00014000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x00018000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x0001c000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x00020000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x00024000 is not formatted. It will be erased
JFFS2: Erase block at 0x00028000 is not formatted. It will be erased

 v2 : get length of availble freeoob bytes from oobinfo information,
      not use the ioctl ECCGETLAYOUT which is being deprecated.
