bbu_std_file_handler() checks for -ENOSYS, likely this error code
changed to -ENOTSUPP over time which should be fixed.
Anyway, bbu_std_file_handler() is the wrong function to write barebox to
NAND, this won't work. You'll need imx6_bbu_nand_register_handler() to
create a barebox update handler for NAND.

People use -ENOTSUP nowadays, I think using -ENOSYS for saying "I don't
need that operation" is deprecated. So we should rather extend the test
in bbu_std_file_handler() to also check for -ENOTSUP.
