I know it involves a little bit more computation but I wonder if using
funcs instead of macros here would not be nicer? Perhaps something like:

	loc = is_last ? NAND_READ_LOCATION /* 0xf20 */ : NAND_READ_LOCATION_LAST /* 0xf40 */;
	loc += reg * 2;

>   the call for nandc_set_read_loc() as nandc_set_read_loc(nandc, 0, read_loc, data_size1, 0, true); ---> for last code word.

I think it's best to forward 'cw' as a parameter and do the
computation of is_last locally.
