The Armada 38x SoC family has a NAND controller, compatible
with the controller in Armada 370/375/XP SoCs. Add support for
it in the devicetree file.

I think 'nand' is generic enough, isn't it?

In any case, it seems sane to distinguish a NAND flash from a NOR flash,
from a SPI flash.

FWIW, quite a few other SoCs have chosen 'nand' for the node name, including
the other Armada variants. Was this a wrong choice?

    ePAPR standard [1] tells us:

The name of a node should be somewhat generic, reflecting the function of the 
device and not its precise programming model. If appropriate, the name should 
be one of the following choices:

[...]
• flash

OK, I guess it's fine. Let's try to do things from now on, at least. I'll fix
this and send a new series.

    It is but not more generic than "flash". :-)

    I don't know enough about the SPI flashes but this is only a node name, no 
more, so I think we can afford to be really generic...

    I guess. There's a lot of wrong choices now all over the 
arch/arm/boot/dts/ because people are probably not aware of the necessary 
documentation such as http://devicetree.org/Device_Tree_Usage (pointing to 
ePAPR and having a passage on the generic device names too).
