Can you paste the output of nandbiterrs please?

But that's just partially fixing the problem. And you didn't answer my
previous question: what happens when you configure the ECC engine in,
say 12bit/1024 and you end up with uncorrectable errors (more than 12
bitflips in a 1k block). What's the number reported ECC_ERR_CNT? Is it
set to 13?
