Thanks for taking the time to do this. However, notice this may
be not the accurate way of representing NAND in DT. The kirkwood
specification has a NAND Flash Registers section which speaks about
registers and they seem to match (to some extent) the MVEBU's Device Bus.
Therefore, my understanding is that NAND should be a child of a
'mvebu-devbus' compatible node in the device tree.
I haven't had time to investigate this any further and that's why
NAND hasn't been moved yet.
Maybe you can take a look at armada-xp.dtsi and armada-xp-openblocks-ax3-4.dts
to see how the devbus is handled now. You'll notice that Kirkwood's NAND window
IDs matches Armada 370/XP Device Bus BOOTCS window IDs.
What do you think?
