At Bin Liu's prompting (guru on Linux forum), I'm posting this here. I'm hopeful that the following will mean something to a JFFS2 guru.
I have a custom AM3505 board that gets the following error. It looks very bad, especially the part about "Expect badness..." The only badness that I see is that the userspace application that I was running at the time cannot be restarted. This is definitely bad for me. When I cycle power, the problem goes away for a while. I am initializing and loadiing the root filesystem using the Kernel mode of Flash 1.6, HWECC, ONFI compliant, 1Bit ECC. The NAND flash is 8-bit. I don't have the exact part number and manufacturer, but can obtain it if necessary.
I am using a Linux 2.6.37 kernel that I built from ti-sdk-am3517-evm-05.05.01.00. I know this is a retro version, but I have commited much resource to it since Novermber, 2012, and do not wish to expend any more resource to port anything at this time, unless it fixes this issue.
