I'm not sure 'ecc_step_bytes' is the right name. It sounds too similar
to 'ecc_step_size', when in fact it means "ECC syndrome bytes per step",
right? Maybe just 'ecc_syndrome_size'?

Please add a space around the divide operator:
if (ecc_step_size > (ELM_ECC_SIZE / 2 + 1)) {

You're missing "\n" in your format string.

Also missing "\n" here.

Isn't info->mtd.writesize / ecc->size the same as just ecc->steps?
