      mtd: nand: fix Samsung SLC NAND identification regression · af451af4
      Brian Norris authored
      A combination of the following two commits caused a regression in 3.7-rc1
      when identifying some Samsung NAND, so that some previously working NAND
      were no longer detected properly:
      
          commit e3b88bd6
          mtd: nand: add generic READ ID length calculation functions
      
          commit e2d3a35e
          mtd: nand: detect Samsung K9GBG08U0A, K9GAG08U0F ID
      
      Particularly, a regression was seen on Samsung K9F2G08U0B, with the
      following full 8-byte READ ID string:
      
          ec da 10 95 44 00 ec da
      
      The basic problem is that Samsung manufactures both SLC and MLC NAND
      that use a non-standard decoding table for deriving information from
      their IDs. I have heuristically determined that all the chips that use
      the new table have ID strings which wrap around after the 6th byte.
      Unfortunately, I overlooked the fact that some older Samsung SLC (which
      use a different decoding table) have "5 byte ID strings" which also wrap
      around after the 6th byte.
      
      This patch re-introduces a distinction between these old and new Samsung
      NAND by checking that the 6th byte is non-zero, allowing both old and
      new Samsung NAND to be detected properly.
