NAND-Flash ECC data not used

[Juergen Beisert]

Hello all,

I have tried to use a 16MiB NAND flash in my application. It seems to work, 
but it also seem that the driver is not using the ECC data. I have derived my 
small driver from the spia.c source and have added the line

this->eccmode=NAND_ECC_SOFT;

before calling nand_scan(). nand_scan() inserts the ECC check routines 
correctly in the structure. But later, if the jffs2 calls the driver to read 
data from flash, it calls nand_read_ecc() with parameter oobsel = 0. So the 
line 

int	eccmode = oobsel ? this->eccmode : NAND_ECC_NONE;

in nand_read_ecc() switches back to NONE ecc mode while reading.

Any ideas what's going wrong?
