Re: [U-Boot] [PATCH] ads5121: Set offset of NFC registers in device tree.

      Dear "John Rigby",

I'm not sure this right way to deal with this.  Even with the modified
offset the 1.5 silicon linux nand driver will not work correctly with
the 2.0 silicon nand controller.
That's right - but al least the Linux kernel will not crash if used on
one or the other board.
I think we should fix the NFC base address on the device tree level -
having to support different Linux kernel configurations depending on
if you are on old or new hardware is pretty painful.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
