Hi Matthias,

Thanks for the patch.

Do we know that all of the VF2 1.2A, VF2 1.3B and Milk-V Mars boards have at
least 15kB SPI flash chips? In other words were there a reason this previously
ended at 10kB?

Also it looks like my Mars board and VF2 1.3B both report discovering a
"gd25lq128d" chip of 16kB, so why stop at 15kB?
