On what device? In the am335x TRM (spruh73f.pdf) figure 26-15 (pg 4273)
the rom code is documented to not use any padding on the ECC bytes
(E.G. oob 2..53):
http://www.ti.com/litv/pdf/spruh73f
I see the driver in the u-boot-am33x tree (ti81xx_nand.c) seems to use
4x14 bytes as well though, so perhaps that's a bug in the documentation
instead?
