From 7fac464868ec5d80019fa549b8b4516dd1dc9d5c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Thu, 25 May 2006 09:57:31 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [MTD] Add ECC statistics to struct mtd_info FLASH - especially NAND FLASH - will become less reliable and bit flips more likely. Add an ECC statistics struct to struct mtd_info to keep track of this.
