Holy cow, are you even remotly knowing what you are doing ? 

Removing the xxx_ecc function pointers from the mtd structs does not
remove the fundamental requirement of ECC for NAND FLASH.

I'm just waiting for the follow up patches which remove nand_ecc and the
reed solomon library.

When you're done with those, please remove NAND support entirely.
