You might want to try JFFS2 with EBH summary feature enabled -- that
might be an easier way than switching to YAFFS, while yaffs
command-line tools are still to be updated, unless you've got some
specific reasons.

My patch is not for 2.6.17.6, it's for 2.6.18+ kernels.
For kernels earlier than 2.6.18, there's no way other than adding walk
through the mtd oobinfo to the appropriate functions to mtdif2, if you
want to use MTD ECC.
