Subject: [PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: mtd: gpmi-nand: specify fsl,use-minimum-ecc behavior
Date:   Tue,  6 Feb 2018 18:40:20 +0100
Message-Id: <20180206174021.5947-1-stefan@agner.ch>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

The dt property fsl,use-minimum-ecc requires a NAND chip to
provide a ECC strength/step size, otherwise the driver fails
to probe. This is by design to avoid that the driver uses a
fallback and later changes ECC parameters due to additionion
of a NAND chip driver. Document the current behavior.
