Blocks being considered bad during read. I did not make any deeper analysis,
just copied proven code.

The code above is identical to that found in linux driver. I'm considering
useful to keep it in sync for sake of easier future upgrades.
Sure it could be written as
if (ctrl & NAND_CLE)
	mask = 0x02;
else
	mask = 0;
if (ctrl & NAND_ALE)
	mask |= 0x04;
but the former is a bit shorter.
