Sorry NAK.. I'm sure you are breaking something here :-)

NAND driver supports multiple ECC schemes like;
OMAP_ECC_CODE_HAM1_HW (support for legacy reasons)
OMAP_ECC_CODE_BCH4_HW_DETECTION_SW (needed for OMAP3 and AM35xx)
OMAP_ECC_CODE_BCH4_HW
OMAP_ECC_CODE_BCH8_HW
OMAP_ECC_CODE_BCH8_HW_DETECTION_SW  (needed for OMAP3 and AM35xx)
OMAP_ECC_CODE_BCH16_HW

IIRC ..
- software based ecc-schemes OMAP_ECC_CODE_BCHx_HW_DETECTION_SW
  Reads/Write in per-sector granularity. (here nsector != chip->ecc.steps)

- hardware based ecc-schemes OMAP_ECC_CODE_BCHx_HW, perform
  Reads/Write in per-page granularity (or something like this).
  Therefore you have custom implementation of 
  chip->ecc.read_page = omap_read_page_bch()
 Also if you change the configurations here, it will break the compatibility with
 u-boot, so images flashed via u-boot will stop to boot in kernel and vice-versa.

I suggest, please refrain from these tweaks for now..
All these optimizations have been tested on multiple scenario so please test
all ecc-schemes before doing anything, otherwise you will end-up in
a bad loop of breaking and fixing NAND driver :-).


with regards, pekon
