Hm, I suspect 07ad5a721484 ("mtd: nand: add ->setup_data_interface()
support for Marvell NFCv1") to be the source of our problems.

Can you add the 'marvell,nand-keep-config' property to your nand node?
Looks like we'll need another way to extract the NFC version in case
old bindings are in use (maybe by parsing the compatible of the root
node).
