For that, you might want to add traces in marvell_nand_ecc_init() and
marvell_nand_hw_ecc_ctrl_init().

> Could you also dump the NDCR register in both cases?

NDCR register (as well as NDCBx registers) will appear if you let

    #define DEBUG

at the beginning of the driver.

Also, can you please give us the entire dmesg (I mean the boot, not the
flow of UBIFS errors of course).

If this, in conjunction with your check of the ECC configuration, does
not give satisfying results, I will write a test script using
nandwrite/nanddump/flash_erase.

Thank you,
Miquèl
