Offset should be loff_t, here and elsewhere.

Hmm, that sounds like a bug in nand_do_read_ops().

Don't cast to unsigned long; cast to unsigned long long and use %llx
instead.

Change "page" to "offset"; IMHO the former implies "addr / nand->writesize".

Unnecessary parens.

s/page buffer/block buffer/

Also include the name of the function.

Check whether it succeeded -- don't erase if you couldn't read the data.

Is there any way to flip a bit in the OOB using this command?

Also, unnecessary parens.

Put a space between -> and the number.

Maybe just pass "!read" into nand_rdwr_raw?

Why "addr" on failure but "off" on success?  Looks like addr is used
uninitialized.

As NAND is already on the heavy side, perhaps we should make non-core
functionality like raw accesses and bit errors be configurable?
