If we change to software ecc and then back to hardware ecc, the nand ecc ops pointers are populated with incorrect function pointers. This is related to the way nand_scan_tail() handles assigning functions to ecc ops:
If we are switching to software ecc/no ecc, it assigns default functions to the ecc ops pointers unconditionally, but if we are switching to hardware ecc, the default hardware ecc functions are assigned to ops pointers only if these pointers are NULL (so that drivers could set their own functions). In the case of omap_gpmc.c driver, when we switch to sw ecc, sw ecc functions are assigned to ecc ops by nand_scan_tail(), and when we later switch to hw ecc, the ecc ops pointers are not NULL, so nand_scan_tail() does not overwrite them with hw ecc functions. The result: sw ecc functions used to write hw ecc data.
Clear the ecc ops pointers in omap_gpmc.c when switching ecc types, so that ops which were not assigned by the driver will get the correct default values from nand_scan_tail().
