Subject: mtd: rawnand: davinci: Don't calculate ECC when reading page
From: Paul Cercueil <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 71e89591502d737c10db2bd4d8fcfaa352552afb upstream.
The function nand_davinci_read_page_hwecc_oob_first() does read the ECC
data from the OOB area. Therefore it does not need to calculate the ECC
as it is already available.
