What I mean is I don't see any place where this is actually used --
gpmi-nand is the only place I see this flag being set (though it belongs
on at least elbc as well).

Do they need to be separated?  Just OR them with no mask.  If either the
controller or the chip set the flag, then it's set, and subpage writes
are disallowed.  Obviously you can only do this for certain types of
options -- for others, just don't set the flag in an inappropriate context.
