ubi: Fix failure attaching when vid_hdr offset equals to (sub)page size
[ Upstream commit 1e020e1b96afdecd20680b5b5be2a6ffc3d27628 ]
Following process will make ubi attaching failed since commit
1b42b1a36fc946 ("ubi: ensure that VID header offset ... size"):
ID="0xec,0xa1,0x00,0x15" # 128M 128KB 2KB
modprobe nandsim id_bytes=$ID
flash_eraseall /dev/mtd0
modprobe ubi mtd="0,2048" # set vid_hdr offset as 2048 (one page)
(dmesg):
ubi0 error: ubi_attach_mtd_dev [ubi]: VID header offset 2048 too large.
UBI error: cannot attach mtd0
UBI error: cannot initialize UBI, error -22
Rework original solution, the key point is making sure
'vid_hdr_shift + UBI_VID_HDR_SIZE < ubi->vid_hdr_alsize',
so we should check vid_hdr_shift rather not vid_hdr_offset.
Then, ubi still support (sub)page aligined VID header offset.
