In principle yes, but I still wait for the Samsung driver to show up or
a contract to do it myself :)

I was unclear whether this presents OneNAND as non generic NAND mtd technology possibly requiring changes to yaffs eg the test for the device being an "mtd-nand" at mount time.

I'm not sure either. I have just skimmed the datasheet, but it might be
possible to setup a NAND compatible API
