Actually, it's probably a combination of two problems.

I get a timeout while reading the parameter page, or rather, I'm
supposed to get a timeout, but nandbus_wait_ready() uses getmicrotime(),
which always returns 0. In effect it creates an infinite loop.

The fact that there's never a NAND_STATUS_RDY after the
NAND_CMD_READ_PARAMETER is interesting, but not really the point here.

As I understand it getmicrotime() (at least when FFCLOCK is not defined)
is not updated until after inittimecounter(), which is done after the
nand initialisation.
