Perhaps the title prefix should be "mtd: rawnand:".

I am making a number of reworking proposals below, take what you like.

                                              returns an ENOTSUP error
when trying to tune the timings which prevents the probe of the device.

                                              _features() returns ENOTSUP if...

Actually it does not mean that setting the timings is optional but
rather that the NAND is already capable of listening at its highest
supported rate, so we assume in this case that it is fine to skip the
operation. But as far as I remember the ONFI specification does not
clearly state that this is a fully valid behavior.

Fix it                                                    ()

does not error out if...                          

The code looks good otherwise!
