Here the main question:
- what is the difference in ECC handling in the S3C2440 CPU when using
  a "small page" or a "large page" NAND?
  "Small page" ECC seems to work, but "large page" ECC fails. Anyone here with
  more experience with S3C2440/NAND? The Linux driver works well on the large
  page NANDs, but not the barebox's one.
