In the case of a nand controller that needs the OOB data before
it can read the page data, an unnecessary read sequence is sent
to the nand. This reduces read performance.
This sequence is sent by default before all page reads, but the
OOB first page read function immediately issues a new command, a
simulated READOOB command, which overrides the previous sequence.
This patch (fragment) prevents the initial read sequence from
being sent if chip->ecc.mode indicates OOB first operation.
