Huh? flags is a local variable, and you only use it for checking 32-bit
addressing mode in this function. So this flags modification is
effectively thrown away. Perhaps you meant

fsm->info->flags &= ~FLASH_FLAG_WRITE_1_4_4;

? But then you're back to modifying static data (the device table)
through a per-instance reference. That's not good behavior. Rather,
couldn't you just remove this flag from the table entry in the first
place?
