This seem to break reading the SPI flash on our IOT2050 [1] (didn't test
the eval board yet).

Without that commit, read happens via PIO, and that works. With the
commit, the pattern

with open("out.bin", "wb") as out:
pos = 0
while pos < 2:
with open("/dev/mtd0", "rb") as mtd:
mtd.seek(pos * 0x10000)
out.write(mtd.read(0x10000))
pos += 1

gives the wrong result for the second block while

with open("out2.bin", "wb") as out:
with open("/dev/mtd0", "rb") as mtd:
out.write(mtd.read(0x20000))

(or "mtd_debug read") is fine.

What could be the reason? Our DTBs and k3-am654-base-board.dtb had some
deviations /wrt the ospi node, but aligning ours to the base board made
no difference.
