QCOM NAND controller layout protects available OOB data bytes with ECC also so when ecc->write_oob() is being called then it can't update just OOB bytes. Currently, it first reads the last codeword which includes old OOB bytes. Then it updates the old OOB bytes with new ones and then again writes the codeword back. The reading codeword is unnecessary since user is responsible to have these bytes cleared to 0xFF. This patch removes the read part and updates the OOB bytes with data area padded with OxFF.

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.
