fsl elbc driver causes corruption with bus monitor timeouts while simultaneously access on Nor / Nand mtd partitions

fsl elbc driver causes corruption with bus monitor timeouts while simultaneously access on Nor / Nand mtd partitions

[emre kara]

Hi Scott, Roy.
Scott's "mtd: eLBC NAND: increase bus timeout to maximum" patch is excluded from kernel with Roy's "P4080/eLBC: Make Freescale elbc interrupt common to elbc devices" patch. I don't know the reason for it but this causes bus monitor timeouts and corrupts nand flash while using mainline kernel. As I know there is an errata related to this topic, I think "increasing bus timeout to maximum" is a must.
You can easly generate this situation with below commands:

Note: mtd4 is a Nor and mtd9 is a Nand partition.
[root@P2020RDB root]# mount /dev/mtdblock9 /mnt/src/
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[root@P2020RDB root]# mount /dev/mtdblock9 /mnt/src/ -t jffs2
