Hmm, this looks wrong. When the probing fails, then you do not add
anything at all. You might at least add the device then.

Can you please rename to plat_nand so we have am immidiate idea what it
is ?

Please fold this into the other patch, which touches nand.h and add a
proper changelog.

Please add proper changelog description for the platform driver as well.

Thanks,
