- There is no way to specify more than one NAND, or extra NOR setup, or
different NAND mapping (page size?), etc. Basically all the arguments in the previous FlashInitTable structure - you could tell type, interface and mask separately for each chip select. If that possibility might be necessary for some boards in the future, then some more extensive support in dts is needed. The main problem here is that the code handling such an extensive struct configuration is now deleted (though of course visible in SVN history if you know to look). That said, I'm not even sure any of the other possibilities many any sense in context of CS5536 - more than one NAND or different types, or different mapping than 4K.
I believe geode is end of life; I don't expect to see lots of future designs. We may want this back in future but it is not likely.
It's a good solution for the short term, and there is no long term.
