What is the latest status of the SPI-NAND framework patches?

The reason I am asking is, that we have hardware based on the NXP 
i.MX6UL SOC with a serial NAND connected via QSPI interface.

We currently have a working implementation based on a 3.14 vendor kernel 
using a modified version of the "mt29f_spinand" staging driver, but for 
the future we plan to use a recent mainline kernel.

We also think about porting our implementation to the new framework to 
enable support for more SPI NAND chips (Winbond, Toshiba) and for the 
NXP QSPI-controller.

Therefore we would like to know about the current schedule for bringing 
the framework to mainline.

Thanks,

Frieder Schrempf
