mtd: nand: davinci: correct 4-bit error correction
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
On TI's DA830/OMAP-L137, DA850/OMAP-L138 and DM365, after setting the
4BITECC_ADD_CALC_START bit in the NAND Flash control register to 1 and
before waiting for the NAND Flash status register to be equal to 1, 2 or
3, we have to wait till the ECC HW goes to correction state.  Without this
wait, ECC correction calculations will not be proper.

This has been tested on DA830/OMAP-L137, DA850/OMAP-L138, DM355 and DM365
EVMs.
