So you have a NAND flash controller on your board, right?

Seems you are looking at the "old" legacy NAND driver which should _not_ be 
used anymore. Please use the "new" NAND driver which makes it also quite easy 
to support NAND flash controllers. As an example implementation please take a 
look at the cpu/ppc4xx/ndfc.c driver. It's used in the AMCC "sequoia" 
(440EPx) board. Another boardspecific example is the 
board/prodrive/pdnb3/nand.c driver used by the pdnb3 board.

Best regards,
Stefan
