What makes that the correct name?  The symbol is not documented anywhere,
and while nothing currently tests for the SYS version, nothing currently
sets the non-SYS version.

What is SYS redundant with?

Is this meant to be a user config knob or something that is fixed for a
given board?

u-boot$ git grep CONFIG_SYS_S3C2410_NAND_HWECC
include/configs/VCMA9.h:#define CONFIG_SYS_S3C2410_NAND_HWECC
include/configs/smdk2410.h:#define CONFIG_SYS_S3C2410_NAND_HWECC

u-boot$ git grep CONFIG_S3C2410_NAND_HWECC
drivers/mtd/nand/s3c2410_nand.c:#ifdef CONFIG_S3C2410_NAND_HWECC
drivers/mtd/nand/s3c2410_nand.c:#ifdef CONFIG_S3C2410_NAND_HWECC

The driver checks the version without _SYS. This is a clear bugfix,
so please apply.

Best regards,

There's a clear bug.  I asked questions to determine whether this is the
proper fix (and encourage a better changelog), and you still haven't
answered.  It would also be nice if you'd document the symbol while
you're at it.

In any case, I don't know why you're asking me to apply a patch with an
"arm:" subject line, which only touches ARM board config files, instead
of asking an ARM custodian.

Adding new stuff (like documentation) is now mandatory part of bugfix ?
I'd expect bugfixes to be taken in to actually fix bugs and not kept out
of the tree because the submitter didn't also do another random chore.

Also, I do not know what else should I say besides that the symbol name
is incorrect and you can clearly see it. If that is not enough ...

You were the only one who responded, but I'm fine if Tom or whoever picks
this.

I didn't say mandatory.  I said "would be nice".

In this case the lack of documentation feels related to the cause of the
bug -- no authoritative place to say what the proper name is.  I don't
see it as "another random chore".

The names don't match.  That's a bug.  I was wondering whether the right
thing was to remove SYS in one place or add it in the other (or have we
given up on maintaining the distinction?).  I didn't expect asking that
question to be a huge burden on the patch's progress.  It was also
bundled up in a patchset with a bunch of non-bugfixes, so it didn't seem
like you were asking for urgent handling of this one.

And look at what I get for doing so. :-)

While I would have liked an answer to the questions I asked, it's not
worth arguing over, so:
