Thanks for the review comments.

I have double checked, the logic is correct. May be I shouldn't use _MIN 
to avoid confusion.
In v2 I will change NVDDR_GATE_CFG_MIN to NVDDR_GATE_CFG_STD.

Noted.
I will make a separate condition check as below in v2.

-       } else if (chipnr >= 0) {
-               const struct nand_nvddr_timings *nvddr = 
nand_get_nvddr_timings(conf);
+       } else {
+               if (chipnr < 0)
+                       return ret;

+               const struct nand_nvddr_timings *nvddr = 
nand_get_nvddr_timings(conf);
