Comparing the onenand_base.c file before commit

  5988af2319781bc8e0ce418affec4e09cfa77907 (mtd: Flex-OneNAND support)

and after the commit I made a little patch which seems solves the
issue. The patch has two parts.

The first part replaces line 380 with  'page = (int) (addr >>
this->page_shift);' like before apply the Flex-OneNAND support. I
suppose this is not the better solution, but with this the nandtest
tool works for me. Maybe the author of the commit can clarify this.

The second part (1964) adds two lines which I think are missed when
the Flex-OneNAND support was applied.
