got it. So the NAND_ECC_BCH is the adoption for the SW BCH correction in
mtd layer. I understand that this would be helpful for at91 SoC without
PMECC HW. But there is no user currently, so I hesitate to apply this.

Frankly, there is no EK boards from Atmel use software BCH now, however, a lot of customers use NAND with 224 bytes OOB, can not use software ECC, they need use software BCH. So, I think it is better to apply this patch. If it will break the rule of u-boot, then I think we can wait real user in u-boot need this and then apply this patch.

Best regards
