ONFI timing mode with onfi_set_features unsupported

Hi all,

I have a i.MX6ul here with a Cypress S34ML04G2 connected. This Nand chip
has ONFI support, but onfi_set_features is unsupported (opt_cmd is
0x3b). Currently the gpmi Nand driver calls nand_onfi_set_features(),
gets -EINVAL as error and continues with a very slow default timing.

I assume the nand_onfi_set_features() call is just unnecessary for this
chip, if I skip it, the chip works with the fast timing.

Any idea how to cope with this situation? I attached the most obvious
patch, but it looks a bit hackish. Any suggestions or is the patch fine
as is?

Sascha

Subject: [PATCH] mtd: nand: gpmi: Fix timing on ONFI chips with
 onfi_set_features unsupported

Some chips like for example the Cypress S34ML04G2 are ONFI compliant,
but do not support the get/set_feature commands. Do not call this
command when it's not supported to allow for a fast timing on these
chips.
