This is a typo in development. I will fix it ASAP. -:)

When enabled hardware ECC, NFC of BF54x supports 256 and 512 bytes page
size ECC.
it's maybe little confusing with the NAND chip's pagesize. When NAND
chip is 2KiB or other page size, this driver can use multiple 256/512
pages to do hardware ECC. And it's handled by the driver software here.
