    mtd: nand: Request strength instead of bytes for soft BCH
    
    Previously, we requested that drivers pass ecc.size and ecc.bytes when
    using NAND_ECC_SOFT_BCH. However, a driver is likely to only know the ECC
    strength required for its NAND, so each driver would need to perform a
    strength-to-bytes calculation.
    
    Avoid duplicating this calculation in each driver by asking drivers to
    pass ecc.size and ecc.strength so that the strength-to-bytes calculation
    need only be implemented once.
    
    This reverts/generalizes this commit:
        mtd: nand: Base BCH ECC bytes on required strength
