Thanks for sending this and sorry for the delay in responding. Some
comments below ...

Is this the only required property? I think that "reg" and "ti,hwmods"
are probably also required.

Also given that we are describing the hardware, I am wondering if the
number of chip-selects and wait signals should be defined here too. I
recall that different devices had different number of wait pins available.

Is this the only required property? I would have thought that bus-width
is needed too.

In general, I am wondering if this should be broken into two patches as
you are creating the binding for the gpmc and nand here.
