[PATCH 35/39] mtd: nand: denali: calculate ecc.strength and ecc.bytes generically

Another problem of this driver is hard-coded ecc.strength and
ecc.bytes.  Currently ecc.bytes is defined as follows:

  #define ECC_8BITS	14
  #define ECC_15BITS	26

Such parameters were hard-coded because only the following two cases
are possible on Intel platforms:

 - ecc.size = 512, ecc.strength = 8    --> ecc.bytes = 14
 - ecc.size = 512, ecc.strength = 15   --> ecc.bytes = 26

However, these are actually customizable parameters, for example,
UniPhier platform supports the following:

 - ecc.size = 1024, ecc.strength = 8   --> ecc.bytes = 14
 - ecc.size = 1024, ecc.strength = 16  --> ecc.bytes = 28
 - ecc.size = 1024, ecc.strength = 24  --> ecc.bytes = 42

So, we need somehow a generic way to calculate these parameters.
Fortunately, the Denali User's Guide explains how to calculate the
ecc.bytes.  The formula is:

  ecc.bytes = 2 * CEIL(13 * ecc.strength / 16)  (for ecc.size = 512)
  ecc.bytes = 2 * CEIL(14 * ecc.strength / 16)  (for ecc.size = 1024)

This commit implements two functions denali_calc_ecc_bytes() and
denali_set_max_ecc_strength() to prepare for the next commit,
where I will allow to use SoC-dependent ecc.strength values.
