mtd: nand: default bitflip-reporting threshold to 75% of correction strength

The MTD API reports -EUCLEAN only if the maximum number of bitflips
found in any ECC block exceeds a certain threshold. This is done to
avoid excessive -EUCLEAN reports to MTD users, which may induce
additional scrubbing of data, even when the ECC algorithm in use is
perfectly capable of handling the bitflips.

This threshold can be controlled by user-space (via sysfs), to allow
users to determine what they are willing to tolerate in their
application. But it still helps to have sane defaults.

In recent discussion [1], it was pointed out that our default threshold
is equal to the correction strength. That means that we won't actually
report any -EUCLEAN (i.e., "bitflips were corrected") errors until there
are almost too many to handle. It was determined that 3/4 of the
correction strength is probably a better default.
