YAFFS1 does do overwriting for one purpose only: marking invalid chunks.
YAFFS2 does not do any overwriting. MLC was one of the reasons for this.
Will YAFFS1 work with MLC? Perhaps. If the corruption is limited to the page
that is marked invalid, then it does not really matter since the data is no
longer of interest anyway. The only caveat to this would be if it hammers the
bits that make it look like a bad block.
