Linux already has support for using the ECC implementation of the NAND controller, or a software based ECC implementation, but not for using the ECC implementation of the NAND controller. However, such an implementation is sometimes useful in situations where the NAND controller provides ECC algorithms that are not strong enough for the NAND chip used on the system. A typical case is a NAND chip that requires a 4-bit ECC, while the NAND controller only provides a 1-bit ECC algorithm. This commit introduces the support for the NAND_ECC_ON_DIE ECC mode: - Parsing of the "on-die" value for the "nand-ecc-mode" Device Tree property - Handling NAND_ECC_ON_DIE case in nand_scan_tail(). The idea is that the vendor specific code for the NAND chip must implement ->read_page() and ->write_page(). It may optionally provide its own ->read_page_raw() and ->write_page_raw() as well. For OOB operation, we assume the standard operations are good enough, but they can be overridden by the vendor specific code if needed.
