Sorry but we need more than just speculations here, and using
bootlog timestamps is clearly not enough to prove any of these
suppositions. You'll have to setup ftrace/perf and trigger read/write
requests (using nanddump/nandwrite) to figure out where the overhead
comes from.

Also, I'd recommend keeping this patch for the series changing the GPIO
API.
