Subject: [PATCH] mtd: rawnand: qcom: fix memory corruption that causes panic
This patch fixes a memory corruption that occured in the
qcom-nandc driver since it was converted to nand_scan().
On boot, an affected device will panic from a NPE at a weird place:

The problem is that the nand_scan()'s qcom_nand_attach_chip callback
is updating the nandc->max_cwperpage from 1 to 4. This causes the
sg_init_table of clear_bam_transaction() in the driver's
qcom_nandc_block_bad() to memset much more than what was initially
allocated by alloc_bam_transaction().
Hence, this patch restores the old behavior by performing the
alloc_bam_transaction() after the chip was identified.
