    mtd: nand: omap: remove selection of BCH ecc-scheme via KConfig
    
    With OMAP NAND driver updates, selection of ecc-scheme:
    *DT enabled kernel*
     	depends on ti,nand-ecc-opt and ti,elm-id DT bindings.
    *Non DT enabled kernel*
    	depends on elm_dev and ecc-scheme passed along with platform-data
    	from board file.
    
    So, selection of ecc-scheme (BCH8 or BCH4) from KConfig can be removed

+	  This config enables the ELM hardware engine, which can be used to
