[PATCH 0/2] MXS nand fixes in SPL

Those patches come after some testing of failing in factory on some unit. We found out that the bootrom imx loader was not able to handling badblock. This can be a limit of the implementation right now in imx8mn. Anyway not all the imx platform has the support of this loader. I found some problems on the implementation so I have fixed it up according the experience of Sitara. I tested only using a Fit Image as a flash container
Michael Trimarchi (2): nand: raw: mxs_nand: Fix specific hook registration mtd: nand: mxs_nand_spl: Fix bad block skipping

Move the hook after nand_scan_tail is called. The hook must be replaced to the mxs specific one but those must to be assignment later in the probe function.
With this fix markbad is working

The file was fill of problems and bugs. The bad block are marked beginning of erase block. The first erase block was never checked and the specific function to skip bad block in fit image was never implemented. The imx8mn bootrom seems that not handle the bad block as expected so this needed later to switch from boot rom loader to uboot spl one
