I don't think this is correct. omap_enable_hwecc does not setup
the BCH settings and should be used only for 1-bit ECC i.e. OMAP_ECC_HAM1_CODE_*

I'm sure it will break the boards not using
CONFIG_SPL_NAND_AM33XX_BCH which is
pretty much most TI boards that are not AM335x.

Now, I need to identify why AM335x NAND is broken.
