S5PC100/S5PV210 NAND controller support
Hello,
I wonder if Linux kernel (Vanilla) supports or plans to support the built-in NAND controller of modern Samsung chips.
There is a patch from Samsung found here and there on the web, i.e.
https://e60-open.googlecode.com/svn/patches/kernel/samsung-e60-kernel-mtd.patch
- is it still needed, are there any plans to integrate it?
Regards,

By reading S5PV210 datasheet I discovered that its NAND controller is very similar to the one of S3C2410. The former is already supported well.
Looks that there's no need for a new separate driver, provided that the old one is aware of S5Pxxx chips.

Hello,
I wonder if they should go through staging at first, should they not ? The patch isn't present in 3.3.2 for the moment.
