How is this result possible? You are dumping with the ECC engine
enabled, it reports 3 bf (meaning that it is actually running, at least
the software really thinks there is an on-die engine enabled) but the
data has not been corrected. I expect the first byte to be 0xFF after
correction. Only with -n (raw dump) we should see this.
