This patch add support for BCH16_ECC to omap_gpmc driver.
*need to BCH16 ECC scheme*
With newer SLC Flash technologies and MLC NAND, and large densities, pagesizes
Flash devices have become more suspectible to bit-flips. Thus stronger
ECC schemes are required for protecting the data.
But stronger ECC schemes have come with larger-sized ECC syndromes which require
more space in OOB/Spare. This puts constrains like;
(a) BCH16_ECC can correct 16 bit-flips per 512Bytes of data.
(b) BCH16_ECC generates 26-bytes of ECC syndrome / 512B.
Due to (b) this scheme can only be used with NAND devices which have enough
OOB to satisfy following equation:
OOBsize per page >= 26 * (page-size / 512)

omap_gpmc.h is a generic header used by OMAP NAND driver for all TI platfoms.
Hence this file should be present in generic folder instead of architecture
specific include folder.
Build tested using: ./MAKEALL -s am33xx -s omap3 -s omap4 -s omap5
