I've been wondering: how independent are the flags in include/linux/mtd/bbm.h
and nand.h? I've working on some patches dealing with various such flags. For
instance, I know that the following patch dealt with a potential conflict
between flags in bbm.h and nand.h:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2010-June/030703.html

I don't know if there's a possibility of conflict between NAND_BBT_WRITE (bbm.h)
and your new NAND_ONFI (nand.h); both are 0x00001000. I know *some* options are
written into nand_chip->options and later copied onto the options in
nand_bbt_descr->options for BBT usage, e.g., I just rewrote part of this as a
new function nand_create_default_bbt_descr() in nand_bbt.c:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2010-July/030911.html

Other pieces of the code perform similar functions at the moment.
