I hate to sound like a broken record, but

If the bad block marker is only 1 byte. Don't you need to override

static struct nand_bbt_descr largepage_flashbased = {
	.options = NAND_BBT_SCAN2NDPAGE,
	.offs = 0,
	.len = 2,
	.pattern = scan_ff_pattern
};

I think it is easier just to leave it as 2 bytes. That may
allow substituting a different manufacturers chip too.
