Right now, if the caller (i.e. the PL353 NAND driver) passes in a value for any
of the timing parameters that is too large, it will be truncated with the
corresponding mask and then saved, resulting in unexpected behavior.  I saw
this when the PL353 NAND driver tried to set t_rc and t_wc to 17 cycles, which
does not fit in the 4-bit fields for those values -- it got clipped to 4 bits
and stored as 1 cycle, which made communication with the NAND chip fail and
time out.

It would be good to sanity-check each timing here, and rather than returning
void, return a return code indicating success or failure (e.g. -EINVAL for
invalid timings).

Note also that truncation isn't the only thing to check for here.  The PL350
r2p1 datasheet lists a "Minimum permitted value" for each of these timing
values.
