It works for me with devicetree.

I have the following definition in my DT:

		nand at 1,0 {
			compatible = "gpio-control-nand";
			reg = <1 0x0 0x01>;
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <1>;
			gpios = <&qe_pio_c 24 1 	// RDY
				 0			// nCE
				 &qe_pio_c 26 1		// ALE
				 &qe_pio_c 25 1		// CLE
				 0>;			// nwp
		};
