mtd: nand: omap_gpmc: fix error handling
"err" was an unsigned variable, causing negative error codes to turn into positive values, which are interpreted as an amount of succesfully corrected bitflips (and thus not an error). In particular, this resulted in that if the elm reports uncorrectable errors (-EBADMSG), the MTD layer (and UBI) falsely succeeded.
