Looks like a typo, using UBI_EC_HDR_SIZE_CRC (note the "EC") to compute
the CRC for the VID header.
This shouldn't cause any functional change, as both structures are 64
bytes. Verified with:
BUILD_BUG_ON(UBI_VID_HDR_SIZE_CRC != UBI_EC_HDR_SIZE_CRC);

nor_erase_prepare() will be called before erase a NOR flash, it will program '0'
into a block to mark this block. But program data into a erasure interrupted block
can cause program timtout(several minutes at most) error, could impact other
operation on NOR flash. So UBIFS can read this block first to avoid unneeded
program operation.
This patch try to put read operation at head of write operation in
nor_erase_prepare(), read out the data.
If the data is already corrupt, then no need to program any data into this block,
just go to erase this block.

This patch is part of a patch-set which changes the MTD interface
from 'mtd->func()' form to 'mtd_func()' form. We need this because
we want to add common code to to all drivers in the mtd core level,
which is impossible with the current interface when MTD clients
call driver functions like 'read()' or 'write()' directly.
At this point we just introduce a new inline wrapper function, but
later some of them are expected to gain more code. E.g., the input
parameters check should be moved to the wrappers rather than be
duplicated at many drivers.
This particular patch introduced the 'mtd_erase()' interface. The
following patches add all the other interfaces one by one.

This patch adds a possibility to dynamically switch UBI self-checks
on and off, instead of toggling them compile-time from the configuration
menu. This is much more flexible, and consistent with UBIFS, and this
also simplifies UBI Kconfig menu and the code.
This patch introduces two levels of self-checks - general, which
includes all self-checks which are relatively fast, and I/O, which
includes write-verify checks and erase-verify checks, which are
relatively slow and involve flash I/O.

When the read operation fails, UBI tries to re-read several times in
a hope that one of the subsequent reads may succeed. However, currently
UBI re-reads only if MTD failed to read all data, but does not re-reads
if all the data were read, but with an integrity error (-EBADMSB). This
patch makes UBI to always re-try reading.
This should be useful for reading NAND pages with unstable bits -
re-reading may help to get correct data.

When reading data from the flash, corrupt the buffer we are about to
read to. The idea is to fix the following possible situation:
1. The buffer contains data from previous operation, e.g., read from
another PEB previously. The data looks like expected, e.g., if we
just do not read anything and return - the caller would not
notice this. E.g., if we are reading a VID header, the buffer may
contain a valid VID header from another PEB.
2. The driver is buggy and returns use success or -EBADMSG or
-EUCLEAN, but it does not actually put any data to the buffer.
This may confuse UBI or upper layers - they may think the buffer
contains valid data while in fact it is just old data.
Thus, try to reveal such buggy MTD drivers with simple debugging
code which fills the read buffer with 0x12 constant.

In 'nor_erase_prepare()' we want to make sure the UBI headers are

My new shiny code for corrupted PEB detection has NOR specific bug.
We tread PEB as corrupted and preserve it, if
1. EC header is OK.
2. VID header is corrupted.
3. data area is not "all 0xFFs"
In case of NOR we have 'nor_erase_prepare()' quirk, which invalidates
the headers before erasing the PEB. And we invalidate first the VID
header, and then the EC header. So if a power cut happens after we have
invalidated the VID header, but before we have invalidated the EC
header, we end up with a PEB which satisfies the above 3 conditions,
and the scanning code will treat it as corrupted, and will print
scary warnings, wrongly.
This patch fixes the issue by firt invalidating the EC header, then
invalidating the VID header. In case of power cut inbetween, we still
just lose the EC header, and UBI can deal with this situation gracefully.

Currently UBI has one small flaw - when we read EC or VID header, but find only
0xFF bytes, we return UBI_IO_FF and do not report whether we had bit-flips or
not. In case of the VID header, the scanning code adds this PEB to the free list,
even though there were bit-flips.
Imagine the following situation: we start writing VID header to a PEB and have a
power cut, so the PEB becomes unstable. When we scan and read the PEB, we get
a bit-flip. Currently, UBI would just ignore this and treat the PEB as free. This
patch changes UBI behavior and now UBI will schedule this PEB for erasure.

The 'UBI_IO_PEB_EMPTY' and 'UBI_IO_PEB_FREE' are essentially the same
