Specify 4-bit ECC strength instead of 8-bit, to resolve NAND I/O errors
on ELECOM WRC-X3000GS2.

ELECOM WRC-X3000GS2 has a Macronix MX35UF1G24AD SPI-NAND chip as a flash
storage. That chip is registered as a chip that has 128 bytes OOB and
requires 8-bit ECC, and described as the same in the Macronix's datasheet.

But on WRC-X3000GS2, 8-bit ECC breaks NAND I/O on mtdblock devices with
the following errors and 4-bit ECC needs to be used to resolve this issue.

current (ECC strength=8):

```
[    1.401566] 0x000000480000-0x000000500000 : "0:appsblenv"
