I remember that chips with 8bits/512bytes on-die ECC had an extra
command to query a more precise number of bitflips (see this
discussion [1]). It's probably worth implementing that, since those
chips are more likely to have bitflips than the 4bit/512 versions, and
you don't want to move the data around as soon as you have one bitflip.
