+ Enabled by the CONFIG_CMD_NAND_TRIMFFS macro. This command will write to
+ the NAND flash in a manner identical to the 'nand write' command
+ described above -- with the additional check that all pages at the end
+ of eraseblocks which contain only 0xff data will not be written to the
+ NAND flash. This behaviour is required when flashing UBI images
