Subject: [PATCH] lib/bch: Remove VLA usage
In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this removes
the on-stack working buffers in favor of pre-allocated working buffers
(which were already used in other places). Since these routines must
already be serialized (since they work on bch->ecc_buf), adding the usage
of bch->ecc_work would be similarly safe. Additionally, since "max m" is
only 15, this was adjusted to just use a fixed size array in those cases.

This is directed at linux-mtd because it's the only user of this library
and it's how it originally entered the kernel tree...
