Add initial support for the Amlogic NAND flash controller which found
in the Meson-GXBB/GXL/AXG SoCs.

I believe that "depends on COMMON_CLK_AMLOGIC" and "select
COMMON_CLK_REGMAP_MESON" are not necessary:
the driver should build fine without them because it's only
interfacing with the common clock framework.
the common clock framework is enabled by ARCH_MESON and for the
COMPILE_TEST case the common clock framework provides stub
implementations inside the headers.

you are explicitly mentioning GXBB here but you don't add a "GXBB" compatible.
I suggest to shorten this sentence ("This controller is found on Meson
SoCs.") because this driver can also support the 32-bit
Meson8/Meson8b/Meson8m2 SoCs with minor adjustments.

we only have tested on Meson GXL and AXG platform, but it should support GXBB and Meson8/Meson8b/Meson8m2 and the differences between these controllers are only the base address of register and some SD_EMMC_CLOCK control bits.

i think "This controller is found on Meson SoCs." is ok.
