Hi,

I have one correction to your NAND driver. Please see inlined comments.

If CONFIG_PM is disabled your defines don't match function names.

This section fails to compile as gpmi_nfc_suspend and gpmi_nfc_resume
are undefined. It compiles fine if I add gpmi_nfc_ prefix to defines.

+	 *     maximum, we must configure the DLL to be driven by half periods.
+	 *
+	 * (2) We need to convert from an ideal sample delay, in ns, to a
+	 *     "sample delay factor," which the NFC uses. This factor depends on
+	 *     whether we're driving the DLL with full or half periods.
+	 *     Paraphrasing the reference manual:
+	 *
+	 *         AD = SDF x 0.125 x RP
+	 *
+	 * where:
+	 *
+	 *     AD   is the applied delay, in ns.
+	 *     SDF  is the sample delay factor, which is dimensionless.
+	 *     RP   is the reference period, in ns, which is a full clock period
+	 *          if the DLL is being driven by full periods, or half that if
+	 *          the DLL is being driven by half periods.
+	 *
+	 * Let's re-arrange this in a way that's more useful to us:
+	 *
+	 *                        8
+	 *         SDF  =  AD x ----
+	 *                       RP
+	 *
+	 * The reference period is either the clock period or half that, so this
+	 * is:
+	 *
+	 *                        8       AD x DDF
+	 *         SDF  =  AD x -----  =  --------
+	 *                      f x P        P
+	 *
+	 * where:
+	 *
+	 *       f  is 1 or 1/2, depending on how we're driving the DLL.
+	 *       P  is the clock period.
+	 *     DDF  is the DLL Delay Factor, a dimensionless value that
+	 *          incorporates all the constants in the conversion.
+	 *
+	 * DDF will be either 8 or 16, both of which are powers of two. We can
+	 * reduce the cost of this conversion by using bit shifts instead of
+	 * multiplication or division. Thus:
+	 *
+	 *                 AD << DDS
+	 *         SDF  =  ---------
+	 *                     P
+	 *
+	 *     or
+	 *
+	 *         AD  =  (SDF >> DDS) x P

+/**
+ * mil_ecc_read_oob() - MTD Interface ecc.read_oob().
+ *
+ * There are several places in this driver where we have to handle the OOB and
+ * block marks. This is the function where things are the most complicated, so
+ * this is where we try to explain it all. All the other places refer back to
+ * here.
+ *
+ * These are the rules, in order of decreasing importance:
+ *
+ * 1) Nothing the caller does can be allowed to imperil the block mark, so all
+ *    write operations take measures to protect it.
+ *
+ * 2) In read operations, the first byte of the OOB we return must reflect the
+ *    true state of the block mark, no matter where that block mark appears in
+ *    the physical page.
+ *
+ * 3) ECC-based read operations return an OOB full of set bits (since we never
+ *    allow ECC-based writes to the OOB, it doesn't matter what ECC-based reads
+ *    return).
+ *
+ * 4) "Raw" read operations return a direct view of the physical bytes in the
+ *    page, using the conventional definition of which bytes are data and which
+ *    are OOB. This gives the caller a way to see the actual, physical bytes
+ *    in the page, without the distortions applied by our ECC engine.
+ *
+ *
+ * What we do for this specific read operation depends on two questions:
+ *
+ * 1) Are we doing a "raw" read, or an ECC-based read?
+ *
+ * 2) Are we using block mark swapping or transcription?
+ *
+ * There are four cases, illustrated by the following Karnaugh map:
+ *
+ *                    |           Raw           |         ECC-based       |
+ *       -------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
+ *                    | Read the conventional   |                         |
+ *                    | OOB at the end of the   |                         |
+ *       Swapping     | page and return it. It  |                         |
+ *                    | contains exactly what   |                         |
+ *                    | we want.                | Read the block mark and |
+ *       -------------+-------------------------+ return it in a buffer   |
+ *                    | Read the conventional   | full of set bits.       |
+ *                    | OOB at the end of the   |                         |
+ *                    | page and also the block |                         |
+ *       Transcribing | mark in the metadata.   |                         |
+ *                    | Copy the block mark     |                         |
+ *                    | into the first byte of  |                         |
+ *                    | the OOB.                |                         |
+ *       -------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
+ *
+ * Note that we break rule #4 in the Transcribing/Raw case because we're not
+ * giving an accurate view of the actual, physical bytes in the page (we're
+ * overwriting the block mark). That's OK because it's more important to follow
+ * rule #2.
+ *
+ * It turns out that knowing whether we want an "ECC-based" or "raw" read is not
+ * easy. When reading a page, for example, the NAND Flash MTD code calls our
+ * ecc.read_page or ecc.read_page_raw function. Thus, the fact that MTD wants an
+ * ECC-based or raw view of the page is implicit in which function it calls
+ * (there is a similar pair of ECC-based/raw functions for writing).
+ *
+ * Since MTD assumes the OOB is not covered by ECC, there is no pair of
+ * ECC-based/raw functions for reading or or writing the OOB. The fact that the
+ * caller wants an ECC-based or raw view of the page is not propagated down to
+ * this driver.
+ *
+ * @mtd:     A pointer to the owning MTD.
+ * @nand:    A pointer to the owning NAND Flash MTD.
+ * @page:    The page number to read.
+ * @sndcmd:  Indicates this function should send a command to the chip before
+ *           reading the out-of-band bytes. This is only false for small page
+ *           chips that support auto-increment.

+ * struct nfc_hal - GPMI NFC HAL
+ *
+ * This structure embodies an abstract interface to the underlying NFC hardware.
+ *
+ * @version:                     The NFC hardware version.
+ * @description:                 A pointer to a human-readable description of
+ *                               the NFC hardware.
+ * @max_chip_count:              The maximum number of chips the NFC can
+ *                               possibly support (this value is a constant for
+ *                               each NFC version). This may *not* be the actual
+ *                               number of chips connected.
+ * @max_data_setup_cycles:       The maximum number of data setup cycles that
+ *                               can be expressed in the hardware.
+ * @internal_data_setup_in_ns:   The time, in ns, that the NFC hardware requires
+ *                               for data read internal setup. In the Reference
+ *                               Manual, see the chapter "High-Speed NAND
+ *                               Timing" for more details.
+ * @max_sample_delay_factor:     The maximum sample delay factor that can be
+ *                               expressed in the hardware.
+ * @max_dll_clock_period_in_ns:  The maximum period of the GPMI clock that the
+ *                               sample delay DLL hardware can possibly work
+ *                               with (the DLL is unusable with longer periods).
+ *                               If the full-cycle period is greater than HALF
+ *                               this value, the DLL must be configured to use
+ *                               half-periods.
+ * @max_dll_delay_in_ns:         The maximum amount of delay, in ns, that the
+ *                               DLL can implement.
+ * @dma_descriptors:             A pool of DMA descriptors.
+ * @isr_dma_channel:             The DMA channel with which the NFC HAL is
+ *                               working. We record this here so the ISR knows
+ *                               which DMA channel to acknowledge.
+ * @dma_done:                    The completion structure used for DMA
+ *                               interrupts.
+ * @bch_done:                    The completion structure used for BCH
+ *                               interrupts.
+ * @timing:                      The current timing configuration.
+ * @clock_frequency_in_hz:       The clock frequency, in Hz, during the current
+ *                               I/O transaction. If no I/O transaction is in
+ *                               progress, this is the clock frequency during
+ *                               the most recent I/O transaction.
+ * @hardware_timing:             The hardware timing configuration in effect
+ *                               during the current I/O transaction. If no I/O
+ *                               transaction is in progress, this is the
+ *                               hardware timing configuration during the most
+ *                               recent I/O transaction.
+ * @init:                        Initializes the NFC hardware and data
+ *                               structures. This function will be called after
+ *                               everything has been set up for communication
+ *                               with the NFC itself, but before the platform
+ *                               has set up off-chip communication. Thus, this
+ *                               function must not attempt to communicate with
+ *                               the NAND Flash hardware.
+ * @set_geometry:                Configures the NFC hardware and data structures
+ *                               to match the physical NAND Flash geometry.
+ * @set_geometry:                Configures the NFC hardware and data structures
+ *                               to match the physical NAND Flash geometry.
+ * @set_timing:                  Configures the NFC hardware and data structures
+ *                               to match the given NAND Flash bus timing.
+ * @get_timing:                  Returns the the clock frequency, in Hz, and
+ *                               the hardware timing configuration during the
+ *                               current I/O transaction. If no I/O transaction
+ *                               is in progress, this is the timing state during
+ *                               the most recent I/O transaction.
+ * @exit:                        Shuts down the NFC hardware and data
+ *                               structures. This function will be called after
+ *                               the platform has shut down off-chip
+ *                               communication but while communication with the
+ *                               NFC itself still works.
+ * @clear_bch:                   Clears a BCH interrupt (intended to be called
+ *                               by a more general interrupt handler to do
+ *                               device-specific clearing).
+ * @is_ready:                    Returns true if the given chip is ready.
+ * @begin:                       Begins an interaction with the NFC. This
+ *                               function must be called before *any* of the
+ *                               following functions so the NFC can prepare
+ *                               itself.
+ * @end:                         Ends interaction with the NFC. This function
+ *                               should be called to give the NFC a chance to,
+ *                               among other things, enter a lower-power state.
+ * @send_command:                Sends the given buffer of command bytes.
+ * @send_data:                   Sends the given buffer of data bytes.
+ * @read_data:                   Reads data bytes into the given buffer.
+ * @send_page:                   Sends the given given data and OOB bytes,
+ *                               using the ECC engine.
+ * @read_page:                   Reads a page through the ECC engine and
+ *                               delivers the data and OOB bytes to the given
+ *                               buffers.
