mtd: nand: make reads using MTD_OOB_RAW affect only ECC validation
This changes the behavier of MTD_OOB_RAW. It used to read both OOB and data to the data buffer, however you would still need to specify the dummy oob buffer. This is only used in one place, but makes it hard to read data+oob without ECC test, thus I removed that behavier, and fixed the user. Now MTD_OOB_RAW behaves just like MTD_OOB_PLACE, but doesn't do ECC validation Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <maximlevitsky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
