imx-bbu-nand-fcb: Workaround ROM checking fingerprint before correcting bitflips
The FCB block is protected with a ECC code which can correct 1bit errors and detect 2bit errors. This works fine for all fields except the fingerprint marker (Containing "FCB") and the version field. Here the ROM chooses to check the correct value of the fields *before* running the ECC correction. Thus a FCB is not used by the ROM anymore when it has a bitflip in the fingerprint or version. For us this means we have to rewrite the FCB in this case, so reject the faulty FCB in read_fcb_hamming_13_8() which triggers a rewrite during the check operation.
