Subject: [PATCH v2 2/5] mtd: nand: raw: rockchip-nand-controller: add skipbbt
 option

On Rockchip SoCs the first boot stages are written on NAND
with help of manufacturer software that uses a different format
then the MTD framework. Skip the automatic BBT scan with the
NAND_SKIP_BBTSCAN option so that the original content is unchanged
during the driver probe.
The NAND_NO_BBM_QUIRK option allows us to erase bad blocks with
the nand_erase_nand() function and the flash_erase command.
With these options the user has the "freedom of choice" by neutral
access mode to read and write in whatever format is needed.
