Please add the following:

the code should like this:
----------------------------------------------
	this->swap_block_mark = !GPMI_IS_MX23(this);

	if (!GPMI_IS_IMX23(this) && !GPMI_IS_MX28(this) &&
		of_property_read_bool(this->dev->of_node, "fsl,no-blockmark-swap"))
		this->swap_block_mark = false;
----------------------------------------------

There are some bugs in the gpmi driver which is caused by the assumption that
we always enable the swapping except the imx23. 

So, there are some places should be changed with this patch:
   [1] the subpage hook,
        Please also change the gpmi_ecc_read_subpage() too.

   [2] the OOB hook,
   	Please also change the gpmi_ecc_read_oob(). 


   [3] the markbad hook,
   	Please also change the gpmi_block_markbad() . 

thanks
