Why not make the 'name' part of struct s3c2410_nand_mtd? IOW:
struct s3c2410_nand_mtd {
struct mtd_info mtd;
struct nand_chip chip;
struct s3c2410_nand_set *set;
struct s3c2410_nand_info *info;
int scan_res;
+ char name[S3C_NAND_NAME_LEN];
};
That way you can avoid...

This pointer arithmetic.

And this can become the more safe:
snprintf(nmtd->name, sizeof(nmtd->name), "s3c_nand%d", setno);
nmtd->mtd.name = nmtd->name;
