Hi, thankyou for the great bug report but this is already fixed in
a set sent to RMK.

The best solution (although it does touch a number of Kconfig files)
is to ensure each machine that requires the s3c_device_nand defines
a select in their machine Kconfig.

for example:

config MACH_OSIRIS
	....
	select S3C_DEV_NAND
	....
