This should probably also have a Fixes tag like:

Are you sure about that? I've never seen 4-bytes BBM.

I don't think the four bytes have any "bad block specific" meaning. In
practice, the datasheet states:

	Value programmed for bad block at the first byte of spare
	area: 00h

So only the first byte is used to mark the block bad, the rest is
probably marked "reserved" for simplicity. I believe we should keep the
current layout because it would otherwise break users for no real
reason.

I agree with you that this can break the work of users who use OOB.
However, I believe it would be more appropriate to use an offset of 4,
as the micron chip can use all 4 bytes for additional data about the
bad block. So, there is a non-zero probability of losing OOB data in
the reserved area (2 bytes) when the hardware chip attempts to mark
the block as bad.

Is this really a process the chip can do? Aren't bad blocks factory
marked only?

Then it's mtd's duty to manage them.

Actually, there is my understanding, I’m not sure exactly.

I tested with an offset of 2, no read/write errors were detected
(including read/write to OOB). But I don't have a flash chip with
factory bad blocks yet, when I find such a flash, I will report the
results.
Do I need to send the v3 of the patch with only first commit ("correct
bitmask for ecc status")?
