Thanks for the help. Actually this driver is used in socfpga_cyclone5
board. Just that I misunderstood they would need separate patches. I
will fix this in next commit.

Yup, the code base are from Linux. But I need to modify it to certain
extend to get it working at dev kit. Anyway, it would be excited to
figure whether it work for other platform too.

If you want to run under SPL, there are some patches for that. Let me
know if you need that. While for U-Boot, they are working fine. Probably
it might due to parameter setting. I will attach my configuration in my
new patches. Maybe worth to note, this driver was tested against 3
different devices but they all are ONFI parts.

Thanks and appreciate for your offers to help
