In U-Boot, however, `mtd->dev` is only a pointer to a `struct udevice`. Dereferencing it before assignment is invalid, which breaks the device hierarchy. As a result, consumers relying on `mtd->dev` (e.g. partition parser, reset and re-init paths) operate on a dangling pointer. This leads to failures during warm reset when the NAND device is accessed again. Fix by assigning the device pointer directly: mtd->dev = cadence->dev; This matches U-Boot’s device model, preserves a valid hierarchy, and resolves the warm reset issue on Cadence NAND. Please add commit that it fixes Michael Sure, will submit new with the fixes tag.
