The reason I don't check the return value here is because the
->setup_data_interface() function is not mandatory, and
nand_configure_data_interface() will return -ENOTSUPP if it's not
implemented. But maybe we should check the return value and avoid
calling this function if chip->setup_data_interface() is not
implemented.

Oops, probably a leftover of a previous version where I was not freeing
chip->data_iface in the error path.
I'll fix that.

Yep, I'll document this new function.
Thanks for your review.
