So the above does not hold :-(

Given this shows a significant distinction between PXA NAND controller
(what we could call NFCv1) and Armada 370/XP NAND controller (NFCv2)
I see no way but to introduce a new compatible string for this driver.

Following the convention of choosing the first SoC that introduces the
controller, the new compatible would be "marvell,armada370-nand".

How does this sound?
