For 64 bytes OOB and 512 bytes ECC this driver reports free areas as:

AA AA BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB
AA AA BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB
AA AA BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB
AA AA BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB BB

where AA is free byte(user byte), BB - ECC codes. So to access user bytes
we need bytes 0,1,16,17,32,33,48,49. nand->ecc.bytes == 14, so 'count' is
increased at 16 every iteration, so i guess this is correct.

WDYT?

Thanks, Arseniy
