Subject[PATCH 3/3] mtd: ubi: use 'max_bad_blocks' to compute bad_peb_limit
Date
From: Jeff Westfahl <jeff.westfahl@ni.com>

Use the MTD function 'max_bad_blocks' to compute the UBI bad_peb_limit,
if the function is implemented for an MTD and doesn't return an error.

Currently, the UBIFS code computes the bad PEB limit based on the
worst-case assumption that all the bad blocks could be in a single
partition. However, there are cases in which this is too pessimistic,
such as the case of an ONFI-compliant NAND device that specifies the
maximum number of bad blocks per LUN.
