The Hynix nand flashes store their ECC requirements in byte 4 of its id

I haven't verified yet (perhaps Huang can confirm?), but this may be
similar to a patch Huang submitted recently. In his case, we found that
this table is actually quite unreliable and is likely hard to maintain.

Indeed (as stated in this thread http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.mtd/50252). I'll remove this patch from the next version of this series and make use of the
nand-ecc-strength /nand-ecc-size DT properties instead.

Thanks.

Best Regards,

Boris

Why do you need this ECC information, for my reference?
