- This adds an extra check when data is written to the flash. The
- NAND flash device internally checks only bits transitioning
- from 1 to 0. There is a rare possibility that even though the
- device thinks the write was successful, a bit could have been
- flipped accidentally due to device wear or something else.

There are some defconfig files which set CONFIG_MTD_NAND_VERIFY_WRITE.

I guess you should submit an accompanying patch that removes
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_VERIFY_WRITE from all defconfig files.

thanks a lot.

I will send out a separate patch to fix it.
