The ECC engine strictly validates that flash OOB size equals exactly
64 bytes. However, some NAND chips have a larger physical OOB while
vendor firmware only uses the first 64 bytes for the ECC layout. For
example the Macronix MX35LF1G24AD found in the Netlink HG323DAC has
128 byte physical OOB but vendor firmware only uses the first 64
bytes (24 bytes free + 40 bytes BCH6 parity), leaving bytes 64-127
unused.
Since the engine only operates on the first 64 bytes of OOB
regardless of the physical size, change the check from exact match
to minimum size. Flash with OOB >= 64 bytes works correctly with
the engine's 64-byte layout.

The rtl_ecc_engine_ops structure is only used to provide a set of
callback functions and is never modified after initialization.
Mark it as const so it can be placed in the read-only section, which
improves safety and allows better compiler optimization.

The Realtek RTl93xx switch SoC series has a built in ECC controller
that can provide BCH6 or BCH12 over 512 data and 6 tag bytes. It
generates 10 (BCH6) or 20 (BCH12) bytes of parity.
This engine will most likely work in conjunction with the Realtek
spi-mem based NAND controller but can work on its own. Therefore
the initial implementation will be of type external.
Remark! The engine can support any data blocks that are multiples
of 512 bytes. For now limit it to data+oob layouts that have been
analyzed from existing devices. This way it keeps compatibility
and pre-existing vendor data can be read.
