I could imagine that there are no ONFI compliant chips with small pages,
I don't know how to verify this though.

Anyway, this was a try to make reading the parameter pages a bit more
straight forward. It seems the MXC NAND controller can't support reading
three parameter pages in one go either. It works in software ECC mode
because I reverse the syndome type layout the controller introduces, but
it can't work with hardware ECC. So disregard this patch.
