I'm sorry but this series clearly breaks the current layering. I cannot
authorize SPI-NAND code to fall into the raw NAND subsystem.

As both typologies cannot be used at the same time, I guess you should
have another driver handling this feature under the spi/ subsystem +
a few declarations in the SPI-NAND devices list.

Thanks,
Miquèl
