5  * Test for multi-bit error recovery on a NAND page This mostly tests the
6  * ECC controller / driver.
7  *
8  * There are two test modes:
9  *
10  *	0 - artificially inserting bit errors until the ECC fails
11  *	    This is the default method and fairly quick. It should
12  *	    be independent of the quality of the FLASH.
13  *
14  *	1 - re-writing the same pattern repeatedly until the ECC fails.
15  *	    This method relies on the physics of NAND FLASH to eventually
16  *	    generate '0' bits if '1' has been written sufficient times.
17  *	    Depending on the NAND, the first bit errors will appear after
18  *	    1000 or more writes and then will usually snowball, reaching the
19  *	    limits of the ECC quickly.
20  *
21  *	    The test stops after 10000 cycles, should your FLASH be
22  *	    exceptionally good and not generate bit errors before that. Try
23  *	    a different page in that case.
24  *
25  * Please note that neither of these tests will significantly 'use up' any
26  * FLASH endurance. Only a maximum of two erase operations will be performed.
