No documentation files for Amstrad Delta nor for its NAND driver specifically 
exist under Documentation/. However, there exist some for generic GPIO NAND 
driver where the pin name "rdy" is used explicitly:
Documentation/driver-api/gpio/drivers-on-gpio.rst
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/gpio-control-nand.txt
You can find that mnemonic used across drivers/mtd/nand/, standalone or as a 
suffix, including the Amstrad Delta NAND driver before the change discussed.

To be honest, I don't like it much either, but I'm just using it instead of 
inventing something new.

Thanks,
