/* This is a hack for Rockchip rk3x based devices. The problem is that
* the MEMERASE ioctl is failing (hangs and never returns) in their kernel.
* The sources are not fully available, so fixing it in the rk30xxnand_ko driver
* is not possible.
*
* I straced the stock recovery application and it seems to avoid this
* particular ioctl, instead it is simply writing zeroes using the write() call.
*
* This workaround does the same and will replace all MEMERASE occurances in
* the recovery code.
