Looking more closely, the calls to send_addr() use page_addr rather  
than host->page_addr, and the oob page read uses "page" in the call to  
cmdfunc, so maybe it's just the debug output that was wrong?

All, presumably.

Not personally; it was found during an IRC discussion with a2cypher.

Hmm, what's going on in mxc_nand_read_page_raw_syndrome()?  The caller  
of that calls cmdfunc, then the mxc_nand_read_page_raw_syndrome() calls  
it again, using host->page_addr that was set the first time cmdfunc was  
called? :-P
