I did some more extensive tests that include reading the same nand pages
from both U-Boot and the kernel with BCH8 ECC, and it turns out that
->is_elm_used needs to be set in the pdata in order to make this work.

So the question is whether we actually want to have a DT property for
that or just always enable that bit in case a hardware supported ecc
mode is selected. Any opinion on this?

That's the last topic before I'm clear to send off v4.

Daniel
