info->ecclayout is internal to davinci nand driver, since info is of type 
'struct davinci_nand_info'.

In the davinci_nand.c source, there is already code to assign info->ecclayout 
to chip->ecc.layout.

syndrome_done:
                info->chip.ecc.layout = &info->ecclayout;

We have this internal structure to handle different ecc modes (ecc bits vs. 
page sizes).

Thanks
