I was testing your patch on the V3H-based Condor and Starter Kit boards --
it should have worked without much ado...
It works with *our* driver, living under drivers/mtd/spi-nor/ (which makes
it outdated, AFAIU) and I was going to push it upstream before I learned about
your driver. :-)

So another Spansion flash?

Thank for the info -- seems worth a comment though...

What if we want to read less than 4 bytes (the ID read requests SPI_NOR_MAX_ID_LEN
(6) bytes, i.e. 4 + 2)? You seem to always expect 4 bytes...

The question is why it just duplicates the ID bytes 0..3 on the 2nd iteration
in our case...

Sounds promising... if only we could make the probing work. :-)
