It isn't ignored, just larger block is taken into checksum and put in
header (which is read by BROM). I think, that in NAND case BROM just
ignores length field in header, and calculates checksum for whole page
(8KB), while on MMC it respects this field, hence 0x2000 works for
both.

I've tried to put garbage into checksum field, and MMC doesn't boot if
checksum isn't correct.

Yes, this is true. Should I change it to set block size conditionally
depending on defines - if it's SPL NAND boot, then use 0x2000, in other
occasion use 0x200? Whole `u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin` size doesn't
increase tough (probably because of space between spl and proper
u-boot).
