Why restrict to page aligned writes in nand_write_ecc() ?

Hello,

My nand flash has a 2k page size.  This restriction causes all JFFS2 writes
to fail.  Cleanmarkers can't be written (12 bytes) and inodes that come in
at 68 bytes are also rejected.  In order to get JFFS2 working, is it better
to remove this restriction at the driver level or must all nodes be padded
out to 2048 bytes in JFFS2?

Thanks
Mike
