This is related to ddr2 timings, and this structure only define sdr
related timings.

Actually this one cannot be retrieved from the ONFI timing mode, you'll
have to read bytes 137 and 138 in the parameter page.
Hence I got rid of it in the first place. Then I considered adding all
those missing timings in another structure (see [1]).

I noticed you posted something similar on the MTD mailing list (and
Lucas was waiting for the feature too).
Could we work together to propose something that fulfills all our needs ?

Here's what I need:
- get detailled timings to be able to configure the sunxi NAND
controller appropriately
- a way to get these timings on non-ONFi NANDs (the proposed solution is
exposing the closest  supported ONFI timing mode in the NAND chip DT
node, but I'm open to any new proposal).


Best Regards,

Boris
