UBI: fix corrupted PEB detection for NOR flash
My new shiny code for corrupted PEB detection has NOR specific bug. We tread PEB as corrupted and preserve it, if 1. EC header is OK. 2. VID header is corrupted. 3. data area is not "all 0xFFs" In case of NOR we have 'nor_erase_prepare()' quirk, which invalidates the headers before erasing the PEB. And we invalidate first the VID header, and then the EC header. So if a power cut happens after we have invalidated the VID header, but before we have invalidated the EC header, we end up with a PEB which satisfies the above 3 conditions, and the scanning code will treat it as corrupted, and will print scary warnings, wrongly. This patch fixes the issue by firt invalidating the EC header, then invalidating the VID header. In case of power cut inbetween, we still just lose the EC header, and UBI can deal with this situation gracefully. Thanks to Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de> for tracking this down.
