The mxs nand driver has a calculation for the ecc strength.
This calculation was not used for some common nands and it
was assumed that 2k page nands always have a ecc strength
of 8. This is not true since there are devices with 224 bytes
of oob instread of 64 bytes. These allow for a greater ecc
strength. Since the kernel relies on the calculation and
we have to be consistent with the kernel use the calculcation
in barebox aswell and just remove our assumptions.
