Ok I will correct it.

As per coding style
This does not apply if only one branch of a conditional statement is a single
statement; in the latter case use braces in both branches:

elm_decode_bch_error_page() API will called from nand driver if and only if
errors are present while reading page. Errors can be reported in one or
multiple error vectors.
I will reword it as.
Called with one or more error reported vectors & vectors with error reported
is updated in err_vec[].error_reported

RBL stands for Rom boot Loader
