The BROM does not care / use bad page markings, instead it deals with any bad pages in the first erase-block by simply trying to load "boot0" from the first next erase-block.
This commit implements the same strategy for the sunxi spl nand code, allowing it to boot from the backup boot partition when the main boot partition is bad (tested by erasing the main boot partition).
