Hope you are referring to patch-set given at [1]
Thanks for pointing this out.. I missed it.

Yes, but your patch comment also mentions same issue with Toshiba NANDs 
"	 Tested with Toshiba TH58TEG7DDKTA20(16K + 1280).
	(Unfortuately, this ECC info of its JEDEC parameter page is zero,
	 i hope toshiba can fix it in future.)"

So, I think the basic problem remains the same.. 
However, I let Stefan comment about it more, as his NAND part is different
from the one you tested.
