Maybe you don't need to support both internal and external DMA?

I am pretty sure there are rooms for size reduction.

Ok, the name is not very explicit , maybe you could tell this with a
comment.

Ok, if these are RO registers, it's fine. But maybe don't call the
function "read bch config" which suggest that this is something you can
change.

No, I fear this is not acceptable.

If this is too complicated to just write the oob, why not fallback on
read/write_page (with oob_required and a dummy data buffer)?

Does this really happens? I am pretty sure it is taken care of by the
core. I don't think you should rely on what's in the registers at boot
time.
