Hi Val,

I might propose a slightly different title which I think better
describes the situation:
"mtd: rawnand: rockchip: ensure NVDDR timings are rejected"

Just as an FYI, the fact that it is negative is an implementation
detail, but you mention the #define of the value below, so that's fine.

Here I would welcome two tags in order to get this backported as early
as needed in stable kernels:

Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Fixes: a9ecc8c814e9 ("mtd: rawnand: Choose the best timings, NV-DDR included")

Welcome! The fix looks right besides minor nits in the commit log. I'll
probably take the v2 when it's out after -rc1 has been tagged.

Thanks,
