What do the string changes have to do with synchronizing the NAND driver?

How much does this update affect image size?  This may be a good time to
start ifdeffing portions of the NAND code based on what's actually
needed by the target.

It looks like the entire patch is whitespace-mangled.

That said, if there are any remaining checkpatch complaints due to the
way the code already exists in Linux, I don't think we should make a
local change to U-Boot just to keep checkpatch happy.
