This property is needed to precisely point to the hardware ECC engine
to use when there are several of them available. Here, hardware also
refers to the on-die possibility.

+ A phandle on the hardware ECC engine if any. There are
+ basically three possibilities:
+ 1/ The ECC engine is part of the NAND controller, in this
+ case the phandle should reference the parent node.
+ 2/ The ECC engine is part of the NAND part (on-die), in this

+ 3/ The ECC engine is external, in this case the phandle should
+ reference the specific ECC engine node.
