 I'm pretty sure you have old NAND chips that do not have 6bytes ids
 (see the table here [1]), and printing a huge backtrace in this case is
 probably not what you want.

 If you're okay with dropping this else block, I'll do the change when
 applying, no need to send a new version.

Should I repost patch with else block dropped? Please let me know if that is

 This patch enables support to read the ECC strength and size from the
 NAND flash using Toshiba Memory SLC NAND extended-ID. This patch is
 based on the information of the 6th ID byte of the Toshiba Memory SLC

I understood your opinion. Please apply this patch with dropping the else block.

It seems I forgot the link to the NAND table, so here it is [1], and as
you can see, some chips have only 2 id bytes (TC58DVG02A5 is one of
them).

Toshiba NANDs with an id smaller than 6 bytes exist, so no, we should
not complain at all. If the controller is broken and can't read the 8 id
bytes the core is asking for, then it should be detected at the core
level not in the NAND manufacturer driver.

Some controllers may have limitation in reading ids beyond 5 bytes, 
considering such scenario we think it is better to keep this warning.
However if you feel huge backtrace is an issue, how about we using pr_warn() 
instead?

I'm pretty sure you have old NAND chips that do not have 6bytes ids

If you're okay with dropping this else block, I'll do the change when
applying, no need to send a new version.
