I've asked you several times what you're planning on doing for bad block
marker migration.  I am not going to let you ignore this.  NACK until
you have a migration tool, and a scheme for marking the flash as having
been migrated.

Also please mention below the --- what has changed since v1.

How can column >= mtd->writesize be true at this point?  You've already
subtracted it out.

Again, if we're going to make an API assumption that we get either a
full page access or a full OOB access, then make the assumption fully.
Don't half-implement partial accessses.

Please find some way to indent the continuation line so it doesn't line
up with the if-body.

Those oob layouts won't be quite right for larger page sizes.
