Subject: mtd: nand: tango: Fix incorrect use of SEQIN command

From: Boris Brezillon <[email protected]>

commit a186493237a9d8559997c2f97c33c4716d602fd2 upstream.

SEQIN is supposed to be used when one wants to start programming a page. What we want here is just to change the column within the page, which is done with the RNDIN command.

Fixes 6956e2385a16 ("mtd: nand: add tango NAND flash controller support")
