AFAIK, the Flash/SDRAM size is not important for the OpenWRT image you boot 
from: Flash size is guessed by its JEDEC ID and auto-detected provided that you 
have the correct part description built-in into the MTD driver, and SDRAM size 
is probed early during the boot process.


The only consideration is for the U-Boot bootloader, for which these parameters 
are important to correctly initialize the SDRAM controller and control Flash 
size accesses.

And you still have to provide the correct magic signature to be able to flash 
the board.
