[PATCH v3 1/4] mtd: rawnand: nand_bbt: hide suspend/resume hooks while scanning bbt

[Sean Nyekjaer]

From: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon at collabora.com>

The BBT scan logic use the MTD helpers before the MTD layer had a
chance to initialize the device, and that leads to issues when
accessing the uninitialized suspend lock. Let's temporarily set the
suspend/resume hooks to NULL to skip the lock acquire/release step.

Fixes: 013e6292aaf5 ("mtd: rawnand: Simplify the locking")
