This is a much better description, and this series is looking a lot more
straightforward now. Thanks. A quick comment below, and I'll spend some
more time looking later.

(BTW, can you mark these for -stable, version 3.13+ if/when you resend?
Or else I'll mark it myself, I think.)

Thanks for adjusting for 'eccbytes - 1'. This diff *would* be correct,
except that you're only initializing eccpos[1 .. eccbytes-1] in a for
loop after the switch-case block. It seems like this first patch
actually depends on patch 3, where you move the initialization of the
entire eccpos[] array into each 'case' block. e.g.:

                                                        nand_chip->ecc.size);
                if (nand_chip->options & NAND_BUSWIDTH_16)
-                       ecclayout->eccpos[0]    = BADBLOCK_MARKER_LENGTH;
+                       oob_index               = BADBLOCK_MARKER_LENGTH;
                else
-                       ecclayout->eccpos[0]    = 1;
+                       oob_index               = 1;
+               for (i = 0; i < ecclayout->eccbytes; i++, oob_index++)
+                       ecclayout->eccpos[i]    = oob_index;

So, can you rearrange this series so patch 3 comes first?
