My vote is to treat DataFlash like a block device, and make sure that it supports byte-wide access.
Treat DataFlash like a block device? That sounds wrong to me.
When we treat NAND like a "block device", then we should treat DataFlash like it too.
I understand your concerns about the #ifdef mess, but this suggestion does not sound tempting either.
Yes, it will break existing board, that have some predefined environment variables to read/write/... the DataFlash. And the users of DataFlash would have to adapt to the new syntax.
Best regards, Stefan
