the command, which Shuo was unable to get to work.
That's weird because our controller seems quite flexible [1].

Something like that should work ?

             out_be32(&lbc->fir,
                      (FIR_OP_CM2<<  FIR_OP0_SHIFT) |
                      (FIR_OP_CA<<  FIR_OP1_SHIFT) |
                      (FIR_OP_PA<<  FIR_OP2_SHIFT) |
                      (FIR_OP_WB<<  FIR_OP3_SHIFT));
refill FCM buffer with next 2k data

             out_be32(&lbc->fir,
                      (FIR_OP_WB<<  FIR_OP3_SHIFT) |
                      (FIR_OP_CM3<<  FIR_OP4_SHIFT) |
                      (FIR_OP_CW1<<  FIR_OP5_SHIFT) |
                      (FIR_OP_RS<<  FIR_OP6_SHIFT));
Something like that is what I originally suggested, but Shuo said it
didn't work (even in theory, it requires a CE-don't-care NAND chip,
since bus atomicity is broken).

Shuo, what specifically did you try, and what did you see happen?

First, if we want to read 4K data with once command issuing, we can't=20
use HW_ECC.
Even if we use SW_ECC, we always get lots of weird '0xFF's between 1st=20
2k and 2nd 2k data.
They will cover the data in the head of 2nd 2K.

| xxxxxx ... 1st 2k xxxxxxx ... | ff ff ff ... ff xxxxxx 2nd 2k xxxxxxx |
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------=

It is worse to write 4k data with once command issuing. It can't write=20
the 2nd data correctly.
