Not sure whether I follow you here. drivers/mtd/nand/omap2.c handles cases for pdata->ecc_opt == OMAP_ECC_BCH8_CODE_HW, so the DT bindings need to offer a way to set it.

Perhaps the elm should be a subnode > of the nand one? That is to be discussed for the elm driver then. I'm not sure though whether the elm should always be used when its DT node is present. For now, I would leave it the way it is and have an optional "ti,nand-ecc-use-elm". I just added some more lines of documenation to describe the fact that the elm driver is needed in order to make it work.
