Well, anyway, in Linux ABI is a holy cow, you cannot change it.
That is a tough rule. Old user-space binaries have to always
works.
Thus you may do one of:
1. Invent a new ioctl for 4KiB page NANDs
2. Add sysfs support
3. Just do not expose whole OOB as Kyungmin suggested
But I think assume dwmw2 would need to comment on this and
tell which approach would agree on.
