mtd: nand: use ECC, if present, when scanning OOB
scan_read_raw_oob() is used in only in places where the MTD_OPS_PLACE_OOB mode is preferable to MTD_OPS_RAW mode, so use MTD_OPS_PLACE_OOB instead. MTD_OPS_PLACE_OOB provides the same functionality with the potential[1] added bonus of error correction. This brings scan_block_full() in line with scan_block_fast() so that they both read bad block markers with MTD_OPS_PLACE_OOB. This can help in preventing 0xff markers (in good blocks) from being interpreted as bad block indicators in the presence of a single bitflip. Note that ECC error codes (EUCLEAN or EBADMSG) are already silently ignored in all users of scan_read_raw_oob(). [1] Few drivers perform proper error correction on OOB data. In those cases, the use of MTD_OPS_RAW vs. MTD_OPS_PLACE_OOB is not significant.
