I just tested this on AM335x EVM which uses BCH8_CODE_HW but 8-bit NAND part.
I see that you are using 16-bit NAND.

One more difference in u-boot configuration. For me:
CONFIG_NAND_OMAP_GPMC_PREFETCH=y

Not sure if that matters but let's keep it set for now.

For debug can you please apply the patch (at end) to u-boot at commit a95410696d21
(before breakage) and run the test.

Test procedure:

> nand dump 0

> mmc dev 0 
	#replace 0 with whatever points to SD-card
> nand read $loadaddr 0 800
	#loadaddr is any address in RAM which is free for use.
> fatwrite mmc 0:1 $loadaddr nand.org 800


- restore NAND page 0

> fatload mmc 0:1 $loadaddr nand.org
> nand write $loadaddr 0 800


Now please run the below test on the offending commit 04fcd25873 after applying
the patch (at end).

> nand dump 0
> mmc dev 0
	#replace 0 with whatever points to SD-card
> fatload mmc 0:1 $loadaddr nand.org
> nand write $loadaddr 0 800


Please send me the logs of both tests and the nand.org file so I can try it out here. Thanks!
