   Yes, we have 64 MiB window thru which we can "look into" the large MTD chips.

   Mhm, so we're expected to loop incrementing the window address register
in order to serve the full xfer request?

   Well, my question wasn't about that actually -- that seemed quite obvious.

   As I said, there's 64 MiB read window, and for the writes we can re-use the
read cache to write (exactly) 256 bytes at a time...

   Ah, this somewhat contradicts what you said earlier but seems clear now.
I'll go remove the loops. :-)
