I didn't fully vet my hack, beyond eliminating the Kernel panic, so I
felt more comfortable comparing the values to a stable release.
I compared the values in 5.10 to 5.11-rc4 + your patch, and the number
of steps and oobregion->length are identical between them.

5.10.5:
  chip->ecc.steps = 4
  oobregion->length = d

5.11-rc4 + patch:
  engine_conf->nsteps = 4
  oobregion->length = d
