In 2.6.29 I see:
/*
* The number of bytes available for a client to place data into
* the out of band area
*/
chip->ecc.layout->oobavail = 0;
for (i = 0; chip->ecc.layout->oobfree[i].length; i++)
chip->ecc.layout->oobavail +=
chip->ecc.layout->oobfree[i].length;
mtd->oobavail = chip->ecc.layout->oobavail;
So I don't quite follow ...
