Yes, thanks .. that would be of great help.. 
And may be your experience of Atmel drivers would help me here..

*Correct, should not be double calls to nand_scan_ident()..*
But there is a constrain in nand_base.c, that it does not allow ONFI
page reading in x16 mode.. So how to overcome that..

I see the similar implementation in your ATMEL driver, it does not use
NAND_BUSWIDTH_AUTO so how do you perform ONFI read
for x16 devices ?
drivers/mtd/nand/atmel_nand.c @@atmel_nand_probe()
/* here you move to x16 mode based on your DT or platform data */
	if (host->board.bus_width_16)	/* 16-bit bus width */
		nand_chip->options |= NAND_BUSWIDTH_16;
/* And then you call nand_scan_ident */
/* first scan to find the device and get the page size */
	if (nand_scan_ident(mtd, 1, NULL)) {
		res = -ENXIO;
		goto err_scan_ident;
	}

Wouldn't this fail, _unless_ your device is listed in nand_flash_id[] ?
because it would not be able to read ONFI params.. 
Refer below commit..

Thanks for pitching in, this would help me to understand this better.

Aah sorry, then you might have some problem here in rebasing the
patches. But still if you can, thanks much ..


with regards, pekon
