+ *
+ * Test for multi-bit error recovery on a NAND page. This mostly tests the
+ * ECC controller / driver.
+ *
+ * There are two test modes:
+ *
+ * 0 - artificially inserting bit errors until the ECC fails
+ * This is the default method and fairly quick. It should
+ * be independent of the quality of the FLASH.
+ *
+ * 1 - re-writing the same pattern repeatedly until the ECC fails.
+ * This method relies on the physics of NAND FLASH to eventually
+ * generate '0' bits if '1' has been written sufficient times.
+ * Depending on the NAND, the first bit errors will appear after
+ * 1000 or more writes and then will usually snowball, reaching the
+ * limits of the ECC quickly.
+ *
+ * The test stops after 10000 cycles, should your FLASH be
+ * exceptionally good and not generate bit errors before that. Try
+ * a different page in that case.
+ *
+ * Please note that neither of these tests will significantly 'use up' any
+ * FLASH endurance. Only a maximum of two erase operations will be performed.
