Probably yes. At least separate the LPDDR2 memory
generic parameter DT read code. There are parameters like phy
type which is specific to OMAP controllers so that still need to kept
inside EMIF driver. So there in driver, few lines of code will be there
under CONFIG_OF.

I can extract those functions which can be commonly used and put them
in another file under drivers/memory/

Is that fine with you ?
