* Since kernel v4.8, this driver has been fixed to enable
* use of 4-bit hardware ECC with subpages and verified on
* TI's keystone EVMs (K2L, K2HK and K2E).
* However, in the interest of not breaking systems using
* existing UBI partitions, sub-page writes are not being
* (re)enabled. If you want to use subpage writes on Keystone
* platforms (i.e. do not have any existing UBI partitions),
* then use "ti,davinci-nand" as the compatible in your
* device-tree file.
