This uncovers two different bugs in the driver.

1. read_id_bytes is either '2' or '4', but JEDEC detections needs at
least 5 bytes.

2. The initial buffer (to read the ID and the parameter page) has
256 bytes, but the JEDEC parameter page is 512-bytes.

And while at it, the driver doesn't seem to support reading the
redundant parameter pages (recently reported on barebox ML [1]). So this
is a third bug.

Would you try setting read_id_bytes to '5' and also increasing the READ_PARAM
transfer length? Something like this:
