If I follow the code flow correctly, it seems this is more important
than just exposing the value to the user through sysfs. The
mtd_read_oob function uses the ecc_strength and bitflip_threshold
values to decide if it should return -EUCLEAN or 0 for a read with
correctable bitflips:

if (mtd->ecc_strength == 0)
        return 0; /* device lacks ecc */
return ret_code >= mtd->bitflip_threshold ? -EUCLEAN : 0;

The -EUCLEAN error code is then used in UBI for the wear level logic,
so it would be nice if this could be fixed.
Now both ecc_strength and bitflip_threshold is 0 for me with my SPI
NAND flash, as exposed through sysfs, so I assume the wear level logic
doesn't work right now.
