[PATCH v4 3/3] mtd-nand: DaVinci: Add 4-bit ECC support for large page NAND chips

[Narnakaje, Snehaprabha]

Artem,

The patches on the link below are quite old - v2 version of the patches.

I had sent v3 version of the patches mid July, which Andrew had pulled into the mmotm tree. One of the patches v4, 3/3 was re-submitted last week.

Patch v3 1/3: http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mtd-nand-add-page-parameter-to-all-read_page-read_page_raw-apis.patch
Patch v3 2/3: http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mtd-nand-add-new-ecc-mode-ecc_hw_oob_first.patch
Patch v4 3/3: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2009-August/026832.html

The l2-mtd-2.6.git tree can be updated for the 3 patches above.

Thanks
Sneha
