Yes, we can assert/de-assert CS on each read/write_data_op().
But what about transfer length splitting?
+	p = chip->oob_poi;
+	pl353_nand_read_data_op(chip, p,
+				(mtd->oobsize -
+				PL353_NAND_LAST_TRANSFER_LENGTH), false);
+	p += (mtd->oobsize - PL353_NAND_LAST_TRANSFER_LENGTH);
This should be done as a part of pl353_raw_read/write() right?
