I supposed the failing division is this one:

        /*
         * Set the number of read / write steps for one page depending on ECC
         * mode.
         */
        ecc->steps = mtd->writesize / ecc->size;
        if (ecc->steps * ecc->size != mtd->writesize) {
                WARN(1, "Invalid ECC parameters\n");
                ret = -EINVAL;
                goto err_nand_manuf_cleanup;
        }

Which produces the warning right after. This would mean that

	ecc->size == 0

But this entry is set before calling nand_scan() in mxcnd_probe() to
512, and that does not make sense.

I guess we should be able to reproduce this error with any board using
the mxc NAND driver with hardware correction (now also called "on
host"). Do you have such a board available to at least verify that the
beginning of my logic is right?

Thanks,
Miquèl
