Actually, can you move the nand node out of da850.dtsi completely. Its
much better to keep da850.dtsi restricted to soc-internal devices and
keep the board level devices like NAND flash in <board>.dts file.

Similarly, can you move the NAND pinmux definitions too to the
da850-evm.dts file?

There is advantage in keeping common pinmux definitions in da850.dtsi so
each board doe not have to repeat them. But AEMIF is an exception as its
usage can really be varied (NAND, NOR, SRAM, other). Plus, different
boards are likely to use different chip selects so coming up with some
pinmux definitions which will be reused widely is really unlikely.

Thanks,
