Can you use the generic nand-ecc-step-size and nand-ecc-strength
properties instead of defining new ones?

The gipo.txt binding document recommends naming properties *-gpios, not
*-gpio. Also, these look like they are exposing the actualy R/B and WP#
pins as gpios, correct? If so, then I think it'd be good to give them
generic names, not 'ingenic,' names. That way, we might consider
supporting reusable code that handles them. And I see that sunxi-nand
already uses a generic name for the R/B pin: rb-gpios.

So these might work:

  rb-gpios
  wp-gpios


BTW, generic GPIO WP# handling was discussed a few months ago, though I
didn't see any patches yet:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2015-January/057256.html

I see that your driver is just using this to disable write-protection
permanently, but I've seen cases where it helps to keep write-protection
enabled whenever you're not writing to the NAND.

[PATCH_V2 1/2] dt-bindings: binding for jz4780-{nand,bch}

2015-03-09 Thread Zubair Lutfullah Kakakhel
From: Alex Smith 

Add DT bindings for NAND devices connected to the NEMC on JZ4780 SoCs,
as well as the hardware BCH controller, used by the jz4780_{nand,bch}
drivers.

+* Ingenic JZ4780 NAND/BCH
+
+This file documents the device tree bindings for NAND flash devices on the
+JZ4780. NAND devices are connected to the NEMC controller (described in
+memory-controllers/ingenic,jz4780-nemc.txt), and thus NAND device nodes must
+be children of the NEMC node.
+
+Required NAND device properties:
+- compatible: Should be set to "ingenic,jz4780-nand".
+- reg: For each bank with a NAND chip attached, should specify a bank number,
+  an offset of 0 and a size of 0x100 (i.e. the whole NEMC bank).
+
+Optional NAND device properties:
+- ingenic,bch-device: To make use of the hardware BCH controller, this property
+  must contain a phandle for the BCH controller node. The required properties
+  for this node are described below. If this is not specified, software BCH
+  will be used instead.
+- ingenic,ecc-size: ECC block size in bytes.
+- ingenic,ecc-strength: ECC strength (max number of correctable bits).
+- ingenic,busy-gpio: GPIO specifier for the busy pin.
+- ingenic,wp-gpio: GPIO specifier for the write protect pin.
+
+Example:
+
+nemc: nemc@1341 {
+   ...
+
+   nand: nand@1 {
+   compatible = "ingenic,jz4780-nand";
+   reg = <1 0 0x100>;  /* Bank 1 */
+
+   ingenic,bch-device = <&bch>;
+   ingenic,ecc-size = <1024>;
+   ingenic,ecc-strength = <24>;
+
+   ingenic,busy-gpio = <&gpa 20 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
+   ingenic,wp-gpio = <&gpf 22 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
+   };
+};
+
+The BCH controller is a separate SoC component used for error correction on
+NAND devices. The following is a description of the device properties for a
+BCH controller.
+
+Required BCH properties:
+- compatible: Should be set to "ingenic,jz4780-bch".
+- reg: Should specify the BCH controller registers location and length.
+- clocks: Clock for the BCH controller.
+
+Example:
+
+bch: bch@134d {
+   compatible = "ingenic,jz4780-bch";
+   reg = <0x134d 0x1>;
+
+   clocks = <&cgu JZ4780_CLK_BCH>;
