[PATCH 1/3] mtd: rawnand: Fix wrongful fallthrough NAND_ECC_SOFT

In case of valid HW ECC, where the fallback to SW ECC is not needed,
the mentioned commit breaks the "switch (ecc->placement)" statement,
but then wrongly falls through the "case NAND_ECC_SOFT" of the
parent "switch (ecc->mode)". This causes an -EINVAL in
nand_set_ecc_soft_ops(), because for the valid HW ECC cases
ecc->mode is set to NAND_ECC_HW, but the nand_set_ecc_soft_ops()
expects a NAND_ECC_SOFT mode, thus -EINVAL.
Move the fallback to SW ECC after the setting of the ECC on host ops.
With this, when a valid HW ECC is available, we break the
"switch (ecc->mode)" statement, and when a fallback to SW ECC is
needed, we fallthrough "case NAND_ECC_SOFT".
Fixes: d3f8ec8e979b ("mtd: rawnand: Separate the ECC engine type and the ECC byte placement")
