No global variables like this please. Here is how you use them:

+extern unsigned long msm_nand_phys;
extern declaration in the 'C' file causing warning. We are in plan to 
upload the OneNAND changes soon which makes use of the same .h file.
So you say that OneNAND (an independent driver) is going to use this
variable? Are you also going to export it?

Could you please make the macros to take the "struct msm_nand_chip
*chip" argument instead, and store the pase address there. Do not hide
the fact that those macros are actually functions, not constant - this
is error prone.

Besides, I'm do not know your HW, but if you have several controllers
with various base addresses - your driver won't work.
you are correct, we have multiple controllers, which breaks this logic 
in future.
So then make your macros to accept the base address as an argument
instead please.
