NAND_CTRL is an operational register and in BAM mode operational registers are read only. So, before writing into NAND_CTRL register check if BAM mode is already enabled by bootloader, and set BAM mode only if it is not set already.

If yes, you should have a Fixes/CC: stable pair of tags. Also, what is BAM mode? Please tell us in the commit log.
Currently this is not causing any issue on run time. The writes to this register is silently ignored. However, this could be an issue in future Hardware designs. BAM is the DMA engine on QCOM IPQ platforms, sure will explain this mode in next patchset.
Thanks, Miquèl
