[PATCH v3] mtd: rawnand: sunxi: reject ECC maximization on small pages

When nand-ecc-maximize is set, the driver selects a 1024-byte ECC step
and divides the available OOB bytes by the resulting number of steps. A
NAND with a smaller page therefore produces zero steps and a division by
zero.

The older controllers also provide a 512-byte ECC block mode, but the
hardware documentation describes that as an ECC block size within NAND
pages whose supported sizes start at 1024 bytes. It does not document a
512-byte NAND page mode.

Reject pages smaller than 1024 bytes before deriving the step count. This
prevents the division by zero at the point where the incompatible
maximized geometry is selected without changing explicitly configured
512-byte ECC block handling.

Changes in v3:
- reject ECC maximization on pages smaller than 1024 bytes instead of
  selecting the 512-byte ECC block mode
- leave explicitly configured 512-byte ECC block handling unchanged
- clarify that the hardware documentation describes 512 bytes as an ECC
  block size rather than a supported NAND page size
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260904-submit-sunxi-nand-ecc-step-validation-v2-1-6e3ba6200948@gmail.com

Changes in v2:
- fix ECC maximization at its source by selecting a 512-byte step for
  512-byte pages instead of validating the derived step count
- retain 1024-byte steps for larger pages and the existing capability checks
- rebase on the current MTD nand/next branch
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260811060651.227431-1-james.hilliard1@gmail.com
