Starting with kernel v3.5, it is mandatory to specify ECC strength when using hardware ECC. Without this, kernel panics with a warning of the sort: Driver must set ecc.strength when using hardware ECC ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at drivers/mtd/nand/nand_base.c:3519! Fix this by specifying ECC strength for the boards which were missing this.
