I am a bit puzzled by this change. Usually nand_read_subpage is used
for optimizations (when less data than a full page must be retrieved).
I know it may be used in other cases (because it's easier for the core
in order to support a wide range of controllers). Can you please show a
speed test showing the results before I consider merging this patch?

The monolithic thing was not supposed to improve throughput but to help
with very limited controllers.

Thanks,
