Don't populate the read-only arrays possible_strength and
spare_size on the stack but instead make them static
const. Also makes the object code a little smaller.

Introduce the support for another possible configuration: the ECC
engine may work as DMA master (pipelined) and move itself the data
to/from the NAND chip into the buffer, applying the necessary
corrections/computations on the fly.
This driver offers an ECC engine implementation that must be
instatiated from a SPI controller driver.

Some SPI-NAND chips do not support on-die ECC. For these chips,
correction must apply on the SPI controller end. In order to avoid
doing all the calculations by software, Macronix provides a specific
engine that can offload the intensive work.
Add Macronix ECC engine support, this engine can work in conjunction
with a SPI controller and a raw NAND controller, it can be pipelined
or external and supports linear and syndrome layouts.
Right now the simplest configuration is supported: SPI controller
external and linear ECC engine.
