Sorry for the really late reply.  I'm just cleaning up my mail backlog now.

Yes, there is a binding for describing flash in the device tree.  See
Documentation/powerpc/dts-bindings/mtd-physmap.txt for some details.
NOR is well supported.  NAND drivers use it, but each NAND driver may
require additional properties depending on the NAND controller device
driver.  Flash size can be specified, but I don't think there is a
binding yet for sector size since in most cases the sector size is
probed from the device itself.
