+Subject: [PATCH] disable BBT for the nand flash
+
+Disable the Bad Block Table (BBT) because the BBT uses the 4 last PEBs of
+nand flash, which overwrites UBIFS.
+BBT was disabled in the old kernel. There is not so much performance penalty
+due to that (see the last sentence in the citation below). There is no impact
+on the reliability of a flash because this is just a table of bad blocks which
+is otherwise recreated in the ram at every boot.
+
+The MTD layer supplies upper layers (including UBI) with information about bad
+PEBs. It keeps so-called bad block table in RAM, which is usually 1 bit per PEB.
+When the driver initializes, it has to build this table by scanning whole flash
+media, which normally includes reading OOB area of 1st NAND page of each PEB.
+This takes time and may be improved by using on-flash BBT (bad block table).
+In this case the bad PEB map is stored on flash and MTD does not have to do any
+scanning. See the NAND_USE_FLASH_BBT constant in the Linux source codes. But
+note, bad PEB scanning is usually minor comparing to the UBI scan time, so
+on-flash BBT is not probably going to give much.
