That doesn't mean that all data you're storing is double the size.  A 
board may want to keep the byte offset the same, and let the block 
number change.

Suppose I have a 256K U-Boot.  I want CONFIG_ENV_ADDR to be 256K 
regardless, which would be block 1 for flex SLC or block 2 for regular 
OneNAND.

If I have a 512K U-Boot, then the byte offset would be the same for MLC 
as well.
