mtd: nand: mxs support oobsize bigger than 512
If ecc chunk data size is 512 and oobsize is bigger than 512, there is
a chance that block_mark_bit_offset conflicts with bch ecc area.
The following graph is modified from kernel gpmi-nand.c driver with
each data block 512 bytes. We can see that Block Mark conflicts with
ecc area from bch view. We can enlarge the ecc chunk size to avoid
this problem to those oobsize which is larger than 512.
