It's not so bad on the original DiskOnChip 2000 and Millennium devices.
I'd rather keep it an option for now, at least till the todo list for
the new nand-based driver is reduced. We need to get the HW ECC working
on the driver, and fix up NFTL to work with it. We also need to fix up
the probing to work properly -- currently my hack just had the address
hard-coded.
