[PATCH v5 4/5] mtd: nand: diskonchip: remove custom 'erased check' implementation

Wed Dec 30 11:39:52 PST 2015


The diskonchip drivers is manually checking for 'erased pages' while
correcting ECC bytes.
This logic can now done by the core infrastructure, and can thus be removed
from this drivers.

Changes since v4:
- add missing NAND_ECC_GENERIC_ERASED_CHECK flag
