Commit Message

  The mx35lf1ge4ab_get_eccsr() function uses an SPI DMA operation to
read the eccsr, hence the buffer should not be on stack. Since commit
380583227c0c7f ("spi: spi-mem: Add extra sanity checks on the op param")
the kernel emmits a warning and blocks such operations.

Use the scratch buffer to get eccsr instead of trying to directly read
into a stack-allocated variable.

Looks like my scripts did not properly sent the "applied" e-mail, so
here it is, I applied this patch to nand/next.
