Ah, that should work too. I should be able to read the 'interrupt pending'
register at all times, even when it isn't masked.

What if one has several NAND chips to build a big FS? Is the NAND
controller equipped to handle that?

Yes, but not all of our boards have FPGA and we load the FPGA
from the SW so it is a chicken and egg problem for us.
