2.6.38-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ From: Artem Bityutskiy <[email protected]> commit 26d9be11485ea8c1102c3e8eaa7667412eef4950 upstream. In commit c7b28e25cb9beb943aead770ff14551b55fa8c79 the initialization of the backblockbits was accidentally removed. This patch returns it back, because otherwise some NAND drivers are broken.
