Looks like you're still expecting nand-ecc-step-size to be defined in
the DT, which does not really make sense since you only support one
size: NANDC_STEP_SIZE.

You should remove the

if (ecc->size != NANDC_STEP_SIZE) {
dev_err(nandc->dev, "invalid ecc size\n");
return -EINVAL;
}

block, then do:

cwperpage = mtd->writesize / NANDC_STEP_SIZE;

and finally let the nand_ecc_param_setup() function choose the best
config for you.

Please stop doing useless optimizations like. That brings nothing and
obfuscates the code a bit more. You say in the comment that each
codeword has 4 protected OOB bytes that can be used by the upper layer,
so just do (cwperpage * 4) and let gcc optimize that for you.
