or just

	return DIV_ROUND_UP(strength * fls(8 * step_size), 16) * 2;

the array of supported step size/strength should guarantee that you're
called with unsupported settings.

If you get rid of this oob_reserve_bytes field, you can define caps as
a static const and even directly store ecc_caps in denali_nand_info.
