newer flashs are using ONFI and thus some 4k flashes are not properly
detected actually in barebox which may be the problem that Gabriel
actually have.

http://onfi.org/specifications/

I have the same requirement on an i.MX53 board (for the moment I
hard coded the right values to bypass the flash detection which
returned wrong results, the 4k falsh being detected as a 2k one) and
plan to work on this during april but hard to say when so that may be
beginiong of may.
