I don't think the four bytes have any "bad block specific" meaning. In
practice, the datasheet states:

Value programmed for bad block at the first byte of spare
area: 00h

So only the first byte is used to mark the block bad, the rest is
probably marked "reserved" for simplicity. I believe we should keep the
current layout because it would otherwise break users for no real
reason.
