"PAGESIZE / 512" is the number of ECC chunks. "ECC_BYTES" is the number of bytes needed to store a single ECC code. "2" is the space reserved by the bad block marker. "2 + (PAGESIZE / 512) * ECC_BYTES" should of course be lower or equal than the total number of OOB bytes, otherwise it won't fit. Fix the equation by substituting s/>=/<=/. Suggested-by: Ryan J.
