I've just gone back and looked at the older SoCs and it doesn't seem as though this commit message really applies to the JZ4740, which is the only other Ingenic SoC currently supported upstream. The 4740 doesn't have a BCH controller at all and the NAND interface is fairly different. I think this driver could potentially be reused if support for the JZ4770 makes it upstream, for now though a separate driver is certainly needed for the 4780.

Is it needed? Everything should be cleaned up due to the use of devm functions.

I think the reasoning behind doing this was because I already have to get the address property here in order to get the bank number out of it.

You're right though that I can just do "platform_get_resource(pdev, i)" and avoid doing the translation again, so I have changed it to do that.

I've fixed the rest of your comments as well.

Thanks,
Alex
