Yes, I was wondering if this existed... my bad, next time I will search further.

The hardware seems to be able to drive multiple chip selects, but no implementation does this.
We will stick to CS0 only here for test reasons.

Yes, it seems cleaner.

No more if we stick to ->io_base

This was taken from plat_nand.c, I was not sure if it was necessary, will remove this and rely on DT attributes.

Same, bad plat_nand.c copy/paste.

Will refactor this error management.
