Abhishek Sahu 8eab721488 mtd: rawnand: qcom: erased page detection for uncorrectable errors only
Following is the flow in the HW if controller tries to read erased
page:

1. First ECC uncorrectable error will be generated from ECC engine
   since ECC engine first calculates the ECC with all 0xff and match
   the calculated ECC with ECC code in OOB (which is again all 0xff).
2. After getting ECC error, erased CW detection logic will be
   applied which is different for BCH and RS ECC
    a. For BCH, HW checks if all the bytes in page are 0xff and then
       it updates the status in separate register
       NAND_ERASED_CW_DETECT_STATUS.
    b. For RS ECC, the HW reports the same error when reading an
       erased CW, but it notifies that it is an erased CW by
       placing special characters at certain offsets in the
       buffer.

So the erased CW detect status should be checked only if ECC engine
generated the uncorrectable error.

Currently for all other operational errors also (like TIMEOUT, MPU
errors, etc.), the erased CW detect logic is being applied so fix this
and return EIO for other operational errors.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
