+Macronix NANDs Device Tree Bindings
+-----------------------------------
+
+Macronix NANDs support randomizer operation for scrambling user data,
+which can be enabled with a SET_FEATURE. The penalty when using the
+randomizer are subpage accesses prohibited and more time period needed
+for program operation, i.e., tPROG 300us to 340us (randomizer enabled).
+Enabling the randomizer is a one time persistent and non reversible
+operation.
+
+For more high-reliability concern, if subpage write is not available
+with hardware ECC and not enabled at UBI level, then enabling the
+randomizer is recommended by default by adding a new specific property
+in children nodes.
+
+Required NAND chip properties in children mode:
+- randomizer enable: should be "mxic,enable-randomizer-otp"
+
+Example:
+
+ nand: nand-controller@unit-address {
+
+ nand@0 {
+ reg = <0>;
+ mxic,enable-randomizer-otp;
+ };
+ };
