This is where we describe the different new and generic options used by
the ST BCH driver.

+STM BCH NAND Support
+--------------------
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible		: Should be "st,nand-bch"
+- reg			: Should contain register's location and length
+- reg-names		: "emi_nand" - NAND Controller register map
+			  "emiss" - External Memory Interface Subsystem base
+- interrupts		: Interrupt number
+- interrupt-names	: "nand_irq" - NAND Controller IRQ
+- st,nand-banks		: Subnode representing one or more "banks" of NAND
+			  Flash, connected to an STM NAND Controller (see
+			  description below).
+- nand-ecc-strength	: Generic NAND property (See mtd/nand.txt)
+			  Options are; 0, 18 or 30. If not present, the driver
+			  will choose the strongest scheme compatible if the
+			  OOB size.
+
+Properties describing Bank of NAND Flash ("st,nand-banks"):
+
+- st,nand-csn		: Chip select associated with the Bank.
+
+- st,nand-timing-relax	: [Optional] Number of IP clock cycles by which to
+			  "relax" timing configuration.  Required on some boards
+			  to accommodate board-level limitations. Applies to
+			  ONFI timing mode configuration.
+
+- nand-on-flash-bbt	: Generic NAND property (See mtd/nand.txt)
+
+- partitions		: [Optional] Subnode describing MTD partition map
+			  (see mtd/partition.txt)
+
+Note, during initialisation, the NAND Controller timing registers are configured
+according to one of the following methods, in order of precedence:
+
+	   1. Configuration based on ONFI timing mode, as advertised by the
+	      device during ONFI-probing (ONFI-compliant NAND only).
+
+	   2. Use reset/safe timing values
+
+Example:
+
+	nand at fe901000 {
+		compatible = "st,nand-bch";
+		reg = <0xfe901000 0x1000>, <0xfef00800 0x0800>;
+		reg-names = "emi_nand", "emiss";
+		interrupts = <0 139 0x0>;
+		interrupt-names = "nand_irq";
+		nand-ecc-strength = <30>;
+
+		status = "okay";
+
+		bank0 {
+			/* NAND_BBT_USE_FLASH */
+			nand-on-flash-bbt;
+			st,nand-csn		= <0>;
+
+			partitions {
+				#address-cells = <1>;
+				#size-cells = <1>;
+
+				partition at 0{
+					label = "NANDFlash1";
+					reg = <0x00000000 0x00800000>;
+				};
+
+				partition at 800000{
+					label = "NANDFlash2";
+					reg = <0x00800000 0x0f800000>;
+				};
+			};
+		};
+	};
