This patch adds 4-bit ECC support for large page NAND chips using the new ECC
mode NAND_ECC_HW_OOB_FIRST. The platform data from board-dm355-evm has been
adjusted to use this mode.

The patches have been verified on DM355 device with 2K Micron devices using
mtd-tests and JFFS2. Error correction upto 4-bits has also been verified using
nandwrite/nanddump utilities.

This patch series applies to linux-mtd next (mmotm) GIT tree.

This version (v4) addresses the review comment to leave 2 bytes at offset 0
for NAND manufacturer badblock markers.

There are already 3 patches in my l2-mtd-2.6.git tree:

Please, verify them and let me know if they are OK or I should drop
them and take other patches.

Artem,

The patches on the link below are quite old - v2 version of the patches.

I had sent v3 version of the patches mid July, which Andrew had pulled into the mmotm tree. One of the patches v4, 3/3 was re-submitted last week.

Patch v3 1/3: http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mtd-nand-add-page-parameter-to-all-read_page-read_page_raw-apis.patch
Patch v3 2/3: http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mtd-nand-add-new-ecc-mode-ecc_hw_oob_first.patch
Patch v4 3/3: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2009-August/026832.html

The l2-mtd-2.6.git tree can be updated for the 3 patches above.

Thanks
Sneha

(Could you please avoid top-posting?)
