This function is wrong in multiple ways:
[1] Counting corrected bytes instead of corrected bits.
The following code is counting the number of corrected _bytes_.
/* correct the ECC error */
buf[offset] ^= err_cor_value;
mtd->ecc_stats.corrected++;
bitflips++;
What the core framework expects is the number of corrected _bits_.
They can be different if multiple bitflips occur within one byte.
[2] total number of errors instead of max of per-sector errors
The core framework expects that corrected errors are counted per
sector, then the max value should be taken. The current code simply
iterates over the whole page, i.e. counts the total number of
correction in the page. This means "too many bitflips" is triggered
earlier than it should be, i.e. the NAND device is worn out sooner.
Besides those bugs, this function is unreadable due to the deep
nesting. Notice the whole code in this function is wrapped in
if (irq_status & INTR__ECC_ERR), so this conditional can be moved
out of the function. Also, use shorter names for local variables.
Re-work the function to fix all the issues.

Changes in v2:
- Use shorter names for local variables.
- Fix bugs addressed by [1], [2]
