You should document pinctrl-0 and pinctrl-names, not pins and nand_pins.

Are you sure this is still needed, even after exposing MMC/NAND clks
through the CCF?

You forgot
- #address-cells
- #size-cells
- reg
- interrupts
-

I keep thinking this is not needed if you have the NAND chip properly
defined (NAND_NEED_SCRAMBLING flag set in chip->options).

I'd recommend not forcing a specific ECC config in the example.

Blank line here.
