[U-Boot] scan jffs2 NAND slow and bad block

[Derek Ou]

Dear all,

I just enabled CMD_JFFS2 and JFFS2_NAND in the uboot 1.3.4 for my 
at91sam9263 based board.  In general,  it works in loading the jffs2 
file system and loading files from it.  However, it takes almost an hour 
to scan the jffs2 partition, which is 512 MiB.  Is it because of the 
size of the partition?  Linux loads and starts within a minute.  How 
come it takes so long for u-boot?

Also, it seems that fsload/scanning FS routine does not skip the bad 
blocks in NAND.  So it complains about "read_nand_cached: error reading 
nand off 0x########", with the address within bad blocks reported by 
"nand bad".  Did I forget something in the configuration?

Thanks,
Derek
