Can you take the timings (for example) from arago tree. The timings is tested in am335x-evm
So the timings can be directly used to populate GPMC timings. Timings can found at

Can you take care of the following section mismatch.
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1e2d0): Section mismatch in reference
from the function gpmc_probe_dt() to the function .init.text:gpmc_nand_init().

This will fail for BCH. Index of "soft_bch" is 5 & also don't have selection
option between for BCH4 & BCH8 also.
Can you use the of_property_read_u32 (as done early) to pass the ecc selection
from dt file. This will help selection of BCH4 & BCH8 ecc options.

Thanks
