It may goes wrong _sometimes_.

For example, the TC58NVG5D2 requires 40bits per 1024bytes.
the legacy gpmi will fail in this nand. the gpmi assumes it can use all 
the oob,
so it get a 56bits per 1024types. the 56bits is beyond its hardware's 
capacity.
it will fail in this case. But with this patch set, the gpmi works fine.
