Take a closer look at the table in the link. There is a MT29F16G08ABABA
with ID: "2C 48 00 26 89" and a MT29F16G08CBABA with ID: "2C 48 04 46
85". The second one is the one I have here. I have also a datasheet of
the chip here from where I copy & pasted the above ID. The ID gets read
correctly from the chip by u-boot NAND subsystem.

I tried that. If I run a "nand bad" command then it never returns and
keeps performing some actions on the NAND device as I can see with an
oscilloscope.
