Oh, wait, I was wrong there. So in bcm_nand.c IRQ handler fires very
often, just not during the early phase (RESET, READID), when we don't
use IRQs. During standard read/program/etc IRQ is commonly used.

So maybe all we're missing in case of brcmstb_nand.c is
enabling/acking/disabling IRQ?

It seem that my controller 6.01 has:

1) Following IRQs:
DIREC_READ_MISS
ERASE_COMPLETE
COPYBACK_COMPLETE
PROGRAM_COMPLETE
CONTROLLER_RDY
RDBSY_RDY
ECC_UNCORRECTABLE
ECC_CORRECTABLE

2) Registers for reading/acking above IRQs:
0xf00 DIREC_READ_MISS
0xf04 ERASE_COMPLETE
0xf08 COPYBACK_COMPLETE
0xf0c PROGRAM_COMPLETE
0xf10 CONTROLLER_RDY
0xf14 RDBSY_RDY
0xf18 ECC_UNCORRECTABLE
0xf1c ECC_CORRECTABLE
(if 0x1 is set, it means IRQ was raised, writing 0x1 ack-es it)

3) Register 0x408 for enabling/disabling IRQs:
0x00000004 DIREC_READ_MISS
0x00000008 ERASE_COMPLETE
0x00000010 COPYBACK_COMPLETE
0x00000020 PROGRAM_COMPLETE
0x00000040 CONTROLLER_RDY
0x00000080 RDBSY_RDY
0x00000100 ECC_UNCORRECTABLE
0x00000200 ECC_CORRECTABLE
