[PATCH 2/3] atmel_nand: Work around AT32AP7000 ECC errata

Haavard Skinnemoen haavard.skinnemoen at atmel.com
Fri Jun 20 03:48:31 EDT 2008


The ALE signal isn't correctly wired up to the ECC controller on the
AP7000, so it starts calculating ECC during the address cycles.

Work around this by resetting the ECC controller between the address and
data cycles.
