I've seen commands in uboot (popular bootloader) that can reset nand bad 
blocks, you would need to connect to serial console by soldering pins to 
the device's board and then using a TTL-USB dongle to connect your PC to it.

But if it keeps doing that it might be a bug in the OpenWrt firmware 
(that can't use the NAND properly and then marks it as bad).

Would be useful to state what is your device.
