The following went into v4.4.120:
197190bc5c48 mtd: nand: gpmi: Fix failure when a erased page has a bitflip at BBM
This patch was backported to far for the stable tree. It only makes sense (and only works) together with:
bd2e778c9ee3 gpmi-nand: Handle ECC Errors in erased pages
which first appeared in v4.7.
So either we revert 197190bc5c48 on the v4.4 stable tree or we apply the attached patch which is a backport of bd2e778c9ee3 for v4.4.
I don't know which solution is prefered, personally I would prefer applying the attached patch which is also a bugfix. Without it erased pages may not be handled properly.
I've now applied this bugfix, thanks!
