In general: if we change the device-tree interface (in this case:
replacing a "reg" with a "cs" property) the dt-bindings have to be
updated as well.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/nand-controller.yaml and
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/amlogic,meson-nand.yaml show
that the chip select of a NAND chip is specified with a "reg"
property.
Also the code has to be backwards compatible with old .dtbs.

This is odd - can you please share your definition of the &nfc node?

&nfc {
      nand_chip0: nand at 0 {
        reg = <0>;
      };
};

This should result in nand_set_flash_node() being called with
&nand_chip0 (if it's called with &nfc then something is buggy in our
driver).
If there's no child nodes within &nand_chip0 then why would the
MTD-to-NVMEM code think that it has to parse something?
If you do have child nodes and those are partitions, then make sure
that the structure is correct (see the extra "partitions" node inside
which all partitions are nested):
&nand_chip0 {
    partitions {
        compatible = "fixed-partitions";
        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <1>;

        partition at 0 {
            label = "u-boot";
            reg = <0x0000000 0x4000>;
            read-only;
        };
    };
};
