3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Brian Norris <computersforpe...@gmail.com> commit 74d83beaa229aac7d126ac1ed9414658ff1a89d2 upstream. JFFS2 was designed without thought for OOB bitflips, it seems, but they can occur and will be reported to JFFS2 via mtd_read_oob()[1]. We don't want to fail on these transactions, since the data was corrected. [1] Few drivers report bitflips for OOB-only transactions. With such drivers, this patch should have no effect.
