dt-bindings: mtd: gpmc: Fix the ECC bytes vs. OOB bytes equation
[ Upstream commit 778cb8e39f6ec252be50fc3850d66f3dcbd5dd5a ] "PAGESIZE / 512" is the number of ECC chunks. "ECC_BYTES" is the number of bytes needed to store a single ECC code. "2" is the space reserved by the bad block marker. "2 + (PAGESIZE / 512) * ECC_BYTES" should of course be lower or equal than the total number of OOB bytes, otherwise it won't fit. Fix the equation by substituting s/>=/<=/. Suggested-by: Ryan J.

so the device should have enough free bytes available its OOB/Spare
area to accommodate ECC for entire page. In general following expression
helps in determining if given device can accommodate ECC syndrome:
- "2 + (PAGESIZE / 512) * ECC_BYTES" >= OOBSIZE"
