OK, I think we need some convenience defines in nand_spl_simple.c:

This is long and used in a lot of places.  Furthermore...

Is what everyone does.  So if we replace ECCSTEPS with
(PAGE_SIZE/ECCSIZE) it gets eve longer.  We should probably #define
SYS_NAND_ECCSTEPS, SYS_NAND_ECCTOTAL up top and go with it.
