[PATCH 2/2] Use bit-wise majority to recover the contents of ONFI parameter

[Miquel Raynal]

Hi Jane,

Same comments as before, please: get the right maintainers, add a
commit log, rebase and fix the title prefix.

Have you ever needed/tried this algorithm before?

Please use u8 instead of uint8_t (./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict will
give you the list of styling issues to fix.

I don't think you should allocate that much space on the stack, please
use dynamic allocation.

This is a maximum derivation, there are helpers for that.

I am not sure this is relevant, won't you read only 256 bytes anyway?

Space.

'copy' is maybe not a meaningful name.

v8 could be declared in the else statement of in the for loop.
The name could also be changed.

Please use the BIT() macro.

Space.
