I have not worked with sysfs much so only giving this patch a quick

Add support to show the name and JEDEC identifier as well as to dump the
SFDP table. Not all flashes list their SFDP table contents in their
datasheet. So having that is useful. It might also be helpful in bug
reports from users.

The idea behind the sysfs module is also to have raw access to the SPI
NOR flash device registers, which can also be useful for debugging.

Your current patch does not add this feature. Why do you think it is
important enough to mention it?

It was part of my first (not submitted) version. I.e. you could also
read the status register(s). Comes in handy for debugging the locking
code, for example.

I can also remove that paragraph ;)

Is a NULL check needed here? If the flash does not have a SFDP table
nor->sfdp will be NULL.

That can't happen because..

Rest of it looks good to me.

Thanks for reviewing!
