+ Required properties:
+ - compatible : should be "ibm,ndfc".
+ - reg : should contain at address and length of the NDFC registers
+ - bank-width : NAND chip bus width. Should be 1 for 8-bit NAND or
+ 2 for 16-bit NAND
+ - bank-map : The first 4 bits of this property indicate which of the
+ 4 NDFC banks have chips attached.
+ - #address-cells, #size-cells : Must be present if the flash has
+ sub-nodes representing partitions (see below). In this case
+ both #address-cells and #size-cells must be equal to 1.
+
+ NDFC can have partition nodes, which are described the same way
+ as for the CFI or JEDEC memory-mapped NOR flash.
+
+ Example (Sequoia 440EPx):
+ NDFC is relocatable within EBC and should have EBC as a parent node.
+ Here we have NDFC on EBC CS3 bank:
+
+ ndfc at 0,0 {
+ compatible = "ibm,ndfc-440epx", "ibm,ndfc";
+ reg = <3 000000 2000>;
+ bank-width = <1>;
+ bank-mask = <8>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ partition at 0 {
+ label = "u-boot-nand";
+ reg = <0 0080000>;
+ };
+ partition at 80000 {
+ label = "kernel-nand";
+ reg = <0080000 0180000>;
+ };
+ partition at 200000 {
+ label = "filesystem";
+ reg = <0200000 1e00000>;
+ };
+ };
+
+
More devices will be defined as this spec matures.
