This seem to completely miss the chip->dev_ready != NULL case, e.g.,
piece of code above is like this

                while (time_before(jiffies, timeo)) {
                        if (chip->dev_ready) {
                                if (chip->dev_ready(mtd))
                                        break;
                        } else {
                                if (chip->read_byte(mtd) & NAND_STATUS_READY)
                                        break;
                        }
                        cond_resched();
                }
