(BTW, that's a mighty CC list you have! I'm not sure all CC'd parties
are interested in this series; e.g., Russel and the ARM list seem
unrelated)

Hi Lothar,

Sorry for the delay on this. I get busy enough that I can't/don't reply
to everything quickly...

If I'm understanding your previous conversations with Huang correctly,
you *must* use NAND_BBT_NO_OOB_BBM if you're going to use the
fsl,no-blockmark-swap option. Correct? If so, then you might not need
a separate 'nand-no-oob-bbm' binding; your driver should imply from
'fsl,no-blockmark-swap' that it must also enable NAND_BBT_NO_OOB_BBM.

Also, as I noted in [1], I don't really like exposing a ton of
individual boolean DT properties like this. (At least this property is
orthogonal to the bad block table; I was a little off-base in [1].)
