+ *    have programmed almost all bits to 1 but a few. In this case, we
+ *    shouldn't consider the chunk as erased, and checking ECC bytes prevent
+ *    this case.
+ * 3/ The extraoob argument is optional, and should be used if some of your OOB
+ *    data are protected by the ECC engine.
+ *    It could also be used if you support subpages and want to attach some
