lib/bch: Allow easy bit swapping
It seems that several hardware ECC engine use a swapped representation
of bytes compared to software. This might having to do with how the
ECC engine is wired to the NAND controller or the order the bits are
passed to the hardware BCH logic.
This means that when the software BCH engine is working in conjunction
with data generated with hardware, sometimes we might need to swap the
bits inside bytes, eg:
0x0A = b0000_1010 -> b0101_0000 = 0x50
Make it possible by adding a boolean to the BCH initialization routine.
Regarding the implementation itself, this is a rather simple approach
that can probably be enhanced in the future by preparing the
->a_{mod,pow}_tab tables with the swapping in mind.
