Ok

I'm sorry I don't get that sentence.

This sentence is probably not needed.

"where a special ECC configuration must be used because it is accessed
by the ROM code"? Maybe you can even detail what are these values if
they are fixed.

You should probably inform that scrambling shall be on as well.

I'm not sure I fully get the description. What is the unit here? can
you draw a small ascii-art diagram?
