* This code implements the ECC algorithm used in SmartMedia.
*
* The ECC comprises 22 bits of parity information and is stuffed into 3 bytes.
* The two unused bit are set to 1.
* The ECC can correct single bit errors in a 256-byte page of data. Thus, two such ECC
* blocks are used on a 512-byte NAND page.
