Atmel NAND flash controller bindings

The NAND flash controller node should be defined under the EBI bus (see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/memory-controllers/atmel,ebi.txt).
One or several NAND devices can be defined under this NAND controller.
The NAND controller might be connected to an ECC engine.

* NAND controller bindings:

Required properties:
- compatible: should be one of the following
	"atmel,at91rm9200-nand-controller"
	"atmel,at91sam9260-nand-controller"
	"atmel,at91sam9261-nand-controller"
	"atmel,at91sam9g45-nand-controller"
	"atmel,sama5d3-nand-controller"
	"microchip,sam9x60-nand-controller"
- ranges: empty ranges property to forward EBI ranges definitions.
- #address-cells: should be set to 2.
- #size-cells: should be set to 1.
- atmel,nfc-io: phandle to the NFC IO block. Only required for sama5d3
		controllers.
- atmel,nfc-sram: phandle to the NFC SRAM block. Only required for sama5d3
		  controllers.

Optional properties:
- ecc-engine: phandle to the PMECC block. Only meaningful if the SoC embeds
	      a PMECC engine.

* NAND device/chip bindings:

Required properties:
- reg: describes the CS lines assigned to the NAND device. If the NAND device
       exposes multiple CS lines (multi-dies chips), your reg property will
       contain X tuples of 3 entries.
       1st entry: the CS line this NAND chip is connected to
       2nd entry: the base offset of the memory region assigned to this
		  device (always 0)
       3rd entry: the memory region size (always 0x800000)

Optional properties:
- rb-gpios: the GPIO(s) used to check the Ready/Busy status of the NAND.
- cs-gpios: the GPIO(s) used to control the CS line.
- det-gpios: the GPIO used to detect if a Smartmedia Card is present.
- atmel,rb: an integer identifying the native Ready/Busy pin. Only meaningful
	    on sama5 SoCs.

All generic properties described in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/{common,nand}.txt also apply to the NAND
device node, and NAND partitions should be defined under the NAND node as
described in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partition.txt.

* ECC engine (PMECC) bindings:

Required properties:
- compatible: should be one of the following
	"atmel,at91sam9g45-pmecc"
	"atmel,sama5d4-pmecc"
	"atmel,sama5d2-pmecc"
- reg: should contain 2 register ranges. The first one is pointing to the PMECC
       block, and the second one to the PMECC_ERRLOC block.

* SAMA5 NFC I/O bindings:

SAMA5 SoCs embed an advanced NAND controller logic to automate READ/WRITE page
operations. This interface to this logic is placed in a separate I/O range and
should thus have its own DT node.

- compatible: should be "atmel,sama5d3-nfc-io", "syscon".
- reg: should contain the I/O range used to interact with the NFC logic.

Example:

	nfc_io: nfc-io@70000000 {
		compatible = "atmel,sama5d3-nfc-io", "syscon";
		reg = <0x70000000 0x8000000>;
	};

	pmecc: ecc-engine@ffffc070 {
		compatible = "atmel,at91sam9g45-pmecc";
                reg = <0xffffc070 0x490>,
                      <0xffffc500 0x100>;
	};

	ebi: ebi@10000000 {
		compatible = "atmel,sama5d3-ebi";
		#address-cells = <2>;
		#size-cells = <1>;
		atmel,smc = <&hsmc>;
		reg = <0x10000000 0x10000000
		       0x40000000 0x30000000>;
		ranges = <0x0 0x0 0x10000000 0x10000000
			  0x1 0x0 0x40000000 0x10000000
			  0x2 0x0 0x50000000 0x10000000
			  0x3 0x0 0x60000000 0x10000000>;
		clocks = <&mck>;

                nand_controller: nand-controller {
			compatible = "atmel,sama5d3-nand-controller";
			atmel,nfc-sram = <&nfc_sram>;
			atmel,nfc-io = <&nfc_io>;
			ecc-engine = <&pmecc>;
			#address-cells = <2>;
			#size-cells = <1>;
			ranges;

			nand@3 {
				reg = <0x3 0x0 0x800000>;
				atmel,rb = <0>;

				/*
				 * Put generic NAND/MTD properties and
				 * subnodes here.
				 */
			};
		};
	};

Deprecated bindings (should not be used in new device trees):

Required properties:
- compatible: The possible values are:
	"atmel,at91rm9200-nand"
	"atmel,sama5d2-nand"
	"atmel,sama5d4-nand"
- reg : should specify localbus address and size used for the chip,
	and hardware ECC controller if available.
	If the hardware ECC is PMECC, it should contain address and size for
	PMECC and PMECC Error Location controller.
	The PMECC lookup table address and size in ROM is optional. If not
	specified, driver will build it in runtime.
- atmel,nand-addr-offset : offset for the address latch.
- atmel,nand-cmd-offset : offset for the command latch.
- #address-cells, #size-cells : Must be present if the device has sub-nodes
  representing partitions.

- gpios : specifies the gpio pins to control the NAND device. detect is an
  optional gpio and may be set to 0 if not present.

Optional properties:
- atmel,nand-has-dma : boolean to support dma transfer for nand read/write.
- nand-ecc-mode : String, operation mode of the NAND ecc mode, soft by default.
  Supported values are: "none", "soft", "hw", "hw_syndrome", "hw_oob_first",
  "soft_bch".
- atmel,has-pmecc : boolean to enable Programmable Multibit ECC hardware,
  capable of BCH encoding and decoding, on devices where it is present.
- atmel,pmecc-cap : error correct capability for Programmable Multibit ECC
  Controller. Supported values are: 2, 4, 8, 12, 24. If the compatible string
  is "atmel,sama5d2-nand", 32 is also valid.
- atmel,pmecc-sector-size : sector size for ECC computation. Supported values
  are: 512, 1024.
- atmel,pmecc-lookup-table-offset : includes two offsets of lookup table in ROM
  for different sector size. First one is for sector size 512, the next is for
  sector size 1024. If not specified, driver will build the table in runtime.
- nand-bus-width : 8 or 16 bus width if not present 8
- nand-on-flash-bbt: boolean to enable on flash bbt option if not present false

Nand Flash Controller(NFC) is an optional sub-node

        NFC registers and NFC SRAM. NFC SRAM address and size can be absent

Optional properties:
- atmel,write-by-sram: boolean to enable NFC write by SRAM.
