 Let's start to explain column parity.
 cp0 is the parity that belongs to all bit0, bit2, bit4, bit6.

 This makes things worse. Let's stick with attempt 6 and continue from there.
 Although it seems that the code within the loop cannot be optimised
 further there is still room to optimize the generation of the ecc codes.
