Hello,

Some purely cosmetic suggestions below.

I don't know what is the policy in the MTD/NAND subsystem, but
shouldn't you be using dev_err() instead of pr_err() here to have a
nice prefix for the message ?

		dev_err(&nand_to_mtd(chip)->dev, "set feature ..", mode);

Change to:

	if (!p->onfi)
		return;

This way the rest of the function can save one level of indentation.

Change to:

	if (mxic->reliability_func & MACRONIX_READ_RETRY_BIT == 0)
		return;

And the rest of the function can save one level of indentation.

Which will require less wrapping in those lines that are already at the
third indentation level.

To me, it is also more logical: we exclude the cases we are not
interested in and return early, and then if we are still in the case we
are interested, we handle it.

Best regards,

Thomas
