Exactly.

Unfortunately i only have my B&R hardware to test,
maybe somebody else has an am335x board with NAND flash on it and can 
test.

This would be possible, but we've to take care that such functions isn't 
called during the new introduced debug-case.

In general, it would be a good idea to introduce a dt-property to control 
the polarity of the wait pins, since there is allready a property to 
select the wait pin - this would make the thing complete.
