As reported by patch [1], the `mtd erase' command should not erase bad
blocks.
To force bad block erasing you have to use the `mtd erase.dontskipbad'
command.

This patch tries to fix the same issue without modifying code taken
from the linux kernel, in order to make further upgrades easier.

You should check for bad block here, otherwise  bad block not marked in 
BBT will terminate erasing with CMD_RET_SUCCESS result.
