*changes v5 -> v6*
[PATCH 02/04] minor cleanup

*changes v4 -> v5*
This patch series is split version from earlier series [1].
This series refactors and cleans ELM driver which is used by Hardware
based BCHx ecc-schemes.
 - Undo: introduction of 'struct mtd_info' and 'struct nand_chip'. Instead
         keep ELM driver independent of mtd_info and nand_chip structs and
         pass only required ECC configurations as elm_config() arguments
         elm_config(..., int ecc_steps, int ecc_step_size, int ecc_step_bytes)
 - Undo: re-writing of elm_load_syndrome() ECC register configurations.

*changes v3 -> v4 [1]*
 - in-corporated feedbacks from Brian Norris <computersforpeace at gmail.com>
 - updated: use 'pr_fmt(fmt)' to suffix DRIVER_NAME
 - removed: local 'eccsteps' in ELM driver, instead using nand_chip->ecc.steps
 - undo: irrelavant white-space changes
