IMHO, supporting a specific flash shouldn't be part of this patch.

In any case, why do you need this? If you can share the details about
this device, it would be interesting for me to take a look.

This driver's open-coded, legacy-style flash detection is nasty, and the
only reason I've kept it is to avoid breaking some wacky user with some
old board. In fact, maybe we can just kill it so nobody thinks it's sane.

Flash detection is the NAND core's job, and duplicating it in the driver
is not nice. Let's try to avoid it.

BTW, nand_ids.c seems to list a similar device:

  EXTENDED_ID_NAND("NAND 4GiB 3,3V 8-bit",  0xD7, 4096, LP_OPTIONS),

Have you tried this?
