Recently we manufactured our own custom boards with NAND chips, and we'r noticing that during ftl_format of the chip, it doesn't skip over bad blocks in NAND - can someone verify is skipping bad blocks is already supported in the montavista kernel for davinci?

As far as I know, NAND bad sector skipping/remapping belongs to the filesystem 
layer, not to the character/block device layer. In other words, it should be 
the JFFS2/YAFFS/whatever driver to detect bad bits and act accordingly. Anyway, 
I'd like to hear other opinions on this: I'm using NAND flash too and this 
could be a very serious problem.
