Your patch description doesn't talk about this (and the deletion of
omap3_correct_data_bch() above). Is the NAND BCH library a drop-in
replacement for omap3_correct_data_bch()? If so, TELL me about it in the
commit description. If not, this is an incompatible change and should at
least be documented so that people can understand the change. These
questions are being asked by the DT guys, so include it in your
descriptions.

Also, you're very inconsistent on using 'nand_chip' vs. 'info->nand'.
You added 'nand_chip' amid the noise of patch 3, so if you have it, use
it consistently throughout probe(). Or remove it and don't use it at
all. (This would be an independent patch from patch 3 and 4, in case
you're wondering, since it causes a lot of diff noise.)

As noted previously, the #ifdef should not be necessary.

Ditto.
