Sure, no problem.

I'm not sure the reason is "consistency with the crypto node".
There's an MBus window at 0xf4000000 for NAND, and that is what is described
in the snippet above; and this is a better reason.
That said, technically speaking, you can have any translation scheme you want,
as long as it ends up in 0xf4000000.

Could you explain how this "keeps a consistent addressing"?
Frankly, I don't understand why you choose 0x3000000 ... am I missing something?
Also, speaking of "device bus" this nand node should be behind a devicebus node.
ranges = <MBUS_ID(0xf0, 0x01) 0 0 0xf1000000 0x100000 /* internal-regs */
MBUS_ID(0x01, 0x2f) 0 0 0xf4000000 0x400>;
devbus {
status = "okay";
ranges = <0 MBUS_ID(0x01, 0x2f) 0 0x400>;
/* nand */
nand {
compatible = "marvell,orion-nand";
reg = <0 0x400>;
};
};
(notice this will allow you to relocate the base address of the NAND windows
easily if it conflicts with your PCIe needs).

Oh, this should be fixed. I just missed it, and nobody noticed either.
