That's a bit outdated on the software side.  Look under the nand_spl
directory in u-boot; you should see several boards to use as examples.

If possible, I suggest working with the latest upstream u-boot rather
than what comes with the BSP.

If you have further questions, ask at u-boot at lists.denx.de.
