This driver uses common function for all patterns.
There was some discussion happened on v8 series 
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/933639/
There the comments from Miquel was to use an optional property In the pattern
Matching, so with this approach, based on the command need to update the 
end_cmd_valid bit in command phase cycle.
So in order to follow that approach, we defined a common pattern matching function
And there we are checking the commands.
It significantly reduces the code repetition.

I understand your concern about not to check any NAND command in the drivers
under ->exec_op() implementation.
But do you see any issues/impact with this?
Functionality wise Helmut tested each series and we addressed all the comments in v17 series.

Could you please let me know what do you say?

As I mentioned above in comments of pl353_exec_op(), the PL353 SMC
Controller uses command phase and data phase.
And in the Command phase, command and optional addresses are written to NAND flash.
And it is correct as you said, it looks like page reads but it is actually a command phase address
update.
