mtd: nand: do not write empty pages
Do not write pages which only contain 0xff. UBI expects pages which seem empty to be writable. This got lost with: | commit 3139c3e9a61e70846be8c4f95bb9cffd4465d88a | Author: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de> | Date: Thu Nov 29 11:16:40 2012 +0100 | | mtd core: call driver write function with complete buffer | | mtd->write is supposed to loop around pages internally, no need | to do this in mtd_write. This fixes a huge write performance drop | with the m25p80 driver when it was converted to a mtd driver recently. | Since mtd->writesize is 1 for this driver mtd_write ended up doing | single byte writes on the flash. Introduce mtd_all_ff as a global function since UBI currently has its own implementation. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>
