It's not a good idea to reference a branch that is likely to disappear
in a commit message. Just say that you can't properly support the
TOSHIBA_NAND_CMD_ECC_STATUS operation right and that it might be
addressed in the future.

I know it's different for each subsystem, but for MTD, we don't put
changelogs in the commit message.

Missing period at the end of your sentence. And again, I would not name
the future stuff here. Just say that currently you have no way to send
arbitrary sequences of CMD+ADDR+DATA cycles and thus cannot support this
custom TOSHIBA_NAND_CMD_ECC_STATUS operation.

Is this working correctly when you read more than one ECC chunk? The
ECC step size is 512 bytes and the page is bigger than that, which means
you have more than one ECC chunk per page. What happens to the
NAND_STATUS_FAIL flag if the first chunk is uncorrectable but
following ones are correctable (or do not contain bitflips at all)?

Call nand_read_page_raw() directly.

According to your previous explanation that's not exactly true. Since
ECC bytes are stored in a separate area, the user can decide to use
another mode without trouble. Just skip the BENAND initialization when
mode != NAND_ECC_ON_DIE and we should be good, or am I missing something?

the entire OOB region can be used by the
MTD user.
I'd drop the '(driver)' part since it's not really clear what the
driver is. If you're talking about the NAND controller driver then it's
wrong (at least most of the time), the real users of free OOB bytes are
upper layers (like JFFS2).

Can you please move this code block in a separate toshiba_benand_init()
function in order to keep the toshiba_nand_init() small/readable.
