    mtd: nand: pxa3xx: make ECC configuration checks more explicit
    
    The Armada BCH configuration in this driver uses one of the two
    following ECC schemes:
    
     16-bit correction per 2048 bytes
     16-bit correction per 1024 bytes
    
    These are sufficient for mapping to the 4-bit per 512-bytes and 8-bit
    per 512-bytes (respectively) minimum correctability requirements of many
    common NAND.
    
    The current code only checks for the required strength (4-bit or 8-bit)
    without checking the ECC step size that is associated with that strength
    (and simply assumes it is 512). While that is often a safe assumption to
    make, let's make it explicit, since we have that information.
