[PATCH] ARM: kirkwood: Increase NAND chip-delay for DNS-320

The default chip-delay of 25ns is a bit too tight for some DNS-320's,
increase to 35ns.

I now own 2 DNS-320's, the first of which is happy with a mainline
kernel, the second fills the console with "Bad eraseblock xxx at
0x00000xxxxxxx" for every eraseblock and refuses to access the NAND.
Beyond this they appear identical, and report the same NAND chip
(I haven't physically checked that it's the same, however).

The patch below fixes it, however:-
* Is there something else I should be trying, rather than potentially
masking the problem?
* Is chip-delay too low for kirkwood generally?

Cheers,
