A bit late on this one, but is there a good reason this wasn't just 2
separate 16-bit fields? We already have a few, and I don't see why
this couldn't be the same.

We could redefine this:

#define NAND_ECC_INFO(strength, size) .ecc_strength = (strength),
.ecc_size = (size)

Then we could just drop these unpacking macros.

This could be split to:

uint16_t ecc_strength;
uint16_t ecc_size;
