[v3,0/8] intel-nand-controller: Fixes, cleanups and questions

Hello,

I am trying to replace the xway_nand driver (which is still using the
legacy NAND API) with the intel-nand-controller driver. The Intel LGM
IP (for which intel-nand-controller was implemented) uses a newer
version of the EBU NAND and HSNAND IP found in Lantiq XWAY SoCs. The
most notable change is the addition of HSNAND Intel LGM SoCs (it's not
clear to me if/which Lantiq SoCs also have this DMA engine).

While testing my changes on a Lantiq xRX200 SoC I came across some
issues with the intel-nand-controller driver. The problems I found are:
1) Mismatch between dt-bindings and driver implementation (compatible
   string, patch #1 and patch #4) and hardware capabilities (number of
   CS lines, patch #1).
2) The driver reads the CS (chip select) line from the NAND controller's
   reg property. In the dt-bindings example this is 0xe0f00000. Instead
   it must be read from the NAND chip (child node).
3) A few smaller code cleanups to make the driver easier to understand
   (patches #5 to #8)
4) I tried to understand the timing parameter calculation code but found
   that it probably doesn't work on the Intel LGM SoCs either. The
   dt-bindings example use clock ID 125 which is LGM_GCLK_EBU. So far
   this is fine because EBU is the actual IP block for the NAND
   interface. However, drivers/clk/x86/clk-lgm.c defines this clock as
   a gate without a parent, so it's rate (as read by Linux) is always 0.
   The intel-nand-controller driver then tries to calculate:
     rate = clk_get_rate(ctrl->clk) / HZ_PER_MHZ
   (rate will be 0 because clk_get_rate() returns 0) and then:
     DIV_ROUND_UP(USEC_PER_SEC, rate)
   (this then tries to divide by zero)

For me to move forward with the transition from xway_nand to the
intel-nand-controller driver I to understand a few more details:
- Who from Maxlinear (who took over Intel's AnyWAN division, which
  previously worked on the drivers for the Intel LGM SoCs) can send a
  patch to correct the LGM_GCLK_EBU clock rate in
  drivers/clk/x86/clk-lgm.c? Or is LGM dead and the various drivers
  should be removed instead?
- Who from Maxlinear can provide insights into which clock is connected
  to the EBU NAND controller on Lantiq XWAY (Danube, xRX100, xRX200,
  xRX300) SoCs as well as newer GRX350/GRX550 SoCs so that I can make
  the intel-nand-controller work without hardcoded timing settings on
  the XWAY SoCs?

Due to the severity of issues 2) and 4) above I am targeting linux-next
with this series. In my opinion there's no point in backporting these
fixes to a driver which has been broken since it was upstreamed.

Changes since v1 from [0]:
- Thanks to Miguel for confirming that the reg property of the NAND chip
  is the chip select number of the NAND controller. I removed a question
  about this from the cover-letter.
- Fixed accidental $id change in patch #1 which fixes a binding error
  reported by Rob's bot
- Dropped RFC status

Changes since v2 from [1]:
- Renamed the binding file (in patch #1) to match the new compatible
  string as suggested by Rob
- Added Rob's Acked-by to patch #2 (thank you!)


Best regards,
Martin
