Sorry, I realized a potential issue here.

Stumbling across the "multi-CS" questions on the driver reminds me: it
typically makes sense to define new NAND bindings using separate NAND
*controller* and *flash* device nodes. The above 3 properties, at least,
would apply on a per-flash basis, not per-controller typically. See
sunxi-nand, for instance:

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/sunxi-nand.txt

brcmnand had a similar pattern:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/brcm,brcmnand.txt

(Perhaps it's time we standardized this a little more formally...)
