Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.14 014/110] mtd: nand: brcmnand: Zero bitflip is
 not an error

From: Albert Hsieh <wen.hsieh@...adcom.com>

[ Upstream commit e44b9a9c135727f3410e029910275f40681dc8bc ]

A negative return value of brcmstb_nand_verify_erased_page() indicates a
real bitflip error of an erased page, and other return values (>= 0) show
the corrected bitflip number. Zero return value means no bitflip, but the
current driver code treats it as an error, and eventually leads to
falsely reported ECC error.

Fixes: 02b88eea9f9c ("mtd: brcmnand: Add check for erased page bitflip")
