If I understand correctly your concern, I believe you've missed this
patch submitted by Jon Hunter and not yet merged:
ARM: OMAP2+: Fix-up gpmc merge error
With this patch every chip-select is cleared on gpmc_probe()
as soon as GPMC driver initializes, and before we can request any
NAND/NOR child.
I hope this answers your question.
Feel free to test the series and send your Tested-by!
Thanks,
