[PATCH v5] mtd: nand: Use standard large page OOB layout when using NAND_ECC_NONE

From: Miquel Raynal
Date: Sat Aug 26 2017 - 11:20:10 EST


Use the core's large page OOB layout functions when not reserving any
space for ECC bytes in the OOB layout. Fix ->nand_ooblayout_ecc_lp()
to return -ERANGE instead of a zero length in this case.
