Better still, support *only* device-tree. The Intel board should have
been doing that instead of its stupid fake-pci thing anyway, and using
device properties instead of that stupid hack with putting information
at an MMIO address.

Let the Moorestown *platform* code register the device-tree at startup,
if the NAND code is present, and don't worry about that crap in the
generic driver.
