Pointing to [0] or [1] in the commit log would be nice at least, even
though we cannot get our hands on the real datasheet...

This and what is displayed in the two datasheets pointed above looks
very much like out-of-band data to me, I don't get why we should treat
this part of the array differently? The OOB area is not only supposed to
be used for ECC bytes (even though that's how UBI make use of it), you
can store all the data you want there (but it's not necessarily
protected by the ECC engine, which, in general, matters a lot.

I don't see how this datasheet would be different than the others. They
don't detail the geometry, I would have expected them to do it if the
page size was anything different than the standard?
