mtd: ecc_strength is at ecc step granularity
ecc_strength element of mtd_info will be the strength of one ecc step, not of the entire writesize, as was previously planned. This is the appropriate way because, as was pointed out¹, bit errors in excess of the strength of one step can cause a hard error if they all occur within the same ecc region. ¹ http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2012-March/040313.html Signed-off-by: Mike Dunn <mikedunn@newsguy.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
