A tiny comment on the description. You say:

"The "legacy" ECC layout used until 3.11 uses all the OOB area by
computing the ECC strength and ECC step size ourselves."

This phrase "until 3.11" sounds like the layout changed in 3.11 (which
it did not). The rest of the commit message might clear that up, but
still...

I'm happy either way, as long as the fixes go in. I'll send it, since
I still have the day ahead of me in my timezone.
