Subject: [GIT PULL] MTD NAND fixes for v4.8-rc8

Linus,

This pull request contains fixes for bugs which got introduced in -rc1.
You may wonder why I'm sending this pull request. Usually Brian takes NAND patches
from Boris, but since Brian is very busy these days with other stuff and Boris is
not yet member of the kernel.org web of trust I stepped in.

Boris will be in Berlin at ELCE, I'll sign his key and hopefully other
Kernel developers too such that he can issue his own pull requests soon.

Brian, if there is anything wrong with this pull request, please let us know.
We're not trying to bypass you. All we want is getting these fixes upstream
before the merge window opens and new bugs emerge.

The following changes since commit 3be7988674ab33565700a37b210f502563d932e6:
