I wonder if it wouldn't be better to fix the Micron driver instead:

--- a/drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand_micron.c
+++ b/drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand_micron.c
@@ -448,6 +448,8 @@ static int micron_nand_init(struct nand_chip *chip)

         if (mtd->writesize == 2048)
                 chip->options |= NAND_BBM_FIRSTPAGE |
                                  NAND_BBM_SECONDPAGE;
+       else
+               chip->options |= NAND_BBM_FIRSTPAGE;

         ondie = micron_supports_on_die_ecc(chip);
