If plat_nand loads and the platform_data is not properly set it will segfault.

I am seeing this when plat_nand is referenced inside my DT file but
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_XWAY is not selected, resulting in platform_data not being
populated with valid data.

Hi,

shame on me ... we are currently setting up a build bot to run *all*
mips patches through aiaiai so this wont happen in future  ...

i will fix the patch and resend it ...
