Same as before: data moves should not happen here.

This is risky but maybe this is the trick to get NAND_CMD_RNDOUT
working? If yes maybe it is worth separating from this patchset, if
possible, with a comment explaining what this is all about (the
controller's SRAM being some kind of 1:1 mapping with the NAND SRAM,
thus we need to write the data at the correct offset in the controller
SRAM, I guess?).
Please write the comment above when defining the column field, and
also, if my understanding is correct, can we rename it to sram_column
or something like that?
