Could you please let me know that, when can we expect generic ECC engine update in mtd NAND? Based on that, i will plan to update the ARASAN NAND driver along with your comments mentioned above under this update, as you know there is a limiation in ARASAN NAND controller to detect ECC errors. i am following this series https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10838705/
