Is anybody working on the device-tree-aware ppc 44x NAND flash 
controller (ndfc)  driver?
Not to my knowledge.  We sort of need a decent binding for NAND flash
in general first.
Not really.  You can put the NAND controller in the device
tree without describing the NAND flash itself -- and for that,
you only need a "name", "compatible", "reg", and maybe some
interrupt stuff.
He said driver.  To test a driver, you'd need the binding for both the
controller, and the NAND flash it controls.  Otherwise, the driver
isn't going to do much :).

AFAIK, NAND flash is autodetected by reading it's ID at runtime, so 
there should be no need for flash bindings.
Thanks,
Valentine.
