mtd: rawnand: Fix core interference with sequential reads
A couple of reports pointed at some strange failures happening a bit randomly since the introduction of sequential page reads support. After investigation it turned out the most likely reason for these issues was the fact that sometimes a (longer) read might happen, starting at the same page that was read previously. This is optimized by the raw NAND core, by not sending the READ_PAGE command to the NAND device and just reading out the data in a local cache. When this page is also flagged as being the starting point for a sequential read, it means the page right next will be accessed without the right instructions. The NAND chip will be confused and will not output correct data. In order to avoid such situation from happening anymore, we can however handle this case with a bit of additional logic, to postpone the initialization of the read sequence by one page.
