[PATCH] mtd: nand: pxa3xx: Fix buffer overflow during raw reads

Chunked raw reads get accumulated to the data buffer, but in some
ECC configurations they can end up being larger than the originally
computed size (write page size + OOB size). For example:

4K page size, ECC strength 8:
- Normal reads: writesize (4096B) + oobsize (128B) = 4224 bytes.
- Chunked raw reads: 4 chunks of 1024B + 1 final spare area of 64B + 5
  ECC areas of 32B = 4320B.

Fixes: 6293b0361d9 ("mtd: nand: pxa3xx: add raw read support")
