Add a dtschema for the SPI-NAND controller on the RTL9300 SoCs. The
controller supports
  * Serial/Dual/Quad data with

  * Configurable flash access timing

Why 9300 cannot be alone? What does 9300 mean even? Wildcards and family
models are not allowed in general.

The main thing about the RTL9300 is that that is what all the Realtek documents use to refer to these chips and the specific numbers are akin to the manufacturing part number that you'd actually order (maybe that's a bit of a stretch).

The SoC/CPU block probably does exist as a separate silicon die that they connect to the different switch blocks in the chips that they sell but I don't think you can get "just" the SoC. There is every chance that we'll see that same SoC/CPU block pop up in new chips (I see references to a RTL9302D in some documents). I'd like to be able to support these chips using "rtl9300" but if that's violating the wildcard rule I can drop it.

Also: why no clocks? Binding is supposed to be complete. If it cannot,
you should explain it in the commit msg.

I didn't add it because I had no need for it in my driver. But as you've said previously the binding shouldn't care what the driver does.

I do have the clocking info from the datasheets. I'll add it in v2.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
