For example:
When try to calculate how many bits can correct in one page according to 
the definition, it will give the wrong result.

one page correct bits = (mtd->writesize * ecc->strength) / ecc->size;

take the following use case as an example:
mtd->writesize = 2048 bytes,
ecc->strength = 4 bytes, (for 512 bytes)

before this patch, the ecc->size = 2048, so the result is 4 bytes.

after this patch, the ecc->size = 512, so the result is 16 bytes.

The maximum correct bytes is 16 bytes while not 4 bytes. So, if not align

Best Regards,
