To me it looks like the patch description is somewhat incorrect, but the
fix itself looks okay, unless I'm getting it wrong.

In case of the last page containing bitflips (ret > 0),
spinand_mtd_read() will return that number of bitflips for the last
page. But to me it looks like it should instead return max_bitflips like
it does when the last page read returns with 0.
