Having the NAND part that is not supporting the get/set(timing_mode)
feature explicitly mentioned in the commit message would help reviewers
understand why this patch is needed.

Also mention that, even though the SET/GET_FEATURES(timing_mode) is
marked as required in the ONFI spec, this Macronix chip does not
support it which could be considered as a bug.

Regards,

Boris
