So, is there a similar driver in upstream Linux?  This driver doesn't
quite fit right.  At an "easy" level, there's still the customer macro
around debug statements and not using pr_debug(), and contains a whole
lot of debug code.  There's also code for a saturn platform, is that
being upstreamed?  There's a ton of union usage which is also uncommon.
A small item is it looks like this has its own crc function, when we
have those available already.  There's also things like:
> +enum ca_status_t ca_mdio_read(CA_IN       unsigned int          addr,
> +                           CA_IN       unsigned int          offset,
> +                           CA_OUT      unsigned short        *data)
> +{

Where CA_IN / CA_OUT just don't fit.

Which brings me back to why I asked the first question, this feels a lot
like a driver for an RTOS or some other system was adapted to U-Boot,
rather than writing a new driver for U-Boot based on internal knowledge
of the part in question.  And I think that applies to a lot of the
drivers as seen in the NAND review as well.  Thanks!
