A new series [A-D] has been sent for handling GPMC NAND registers by NAND driver
itself. This is being targeted for 3.5. Hopefully if every one is in agreement, we
can avoid patching for BCH support again when GPMC driver migration happens. And
the effect of GPMC driver migration on NAND driver can be reduced when it happens.

Can you try a patch on top of this series & checks if it works for you, if more is
required from my side let me know.

Afzal
