mtd: spi-nor: intel-spi: Whitelist 4B read commands
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
spi-nor.c issues 4B commands for some Flash chips bigger than 16Mbytes.
Xeon(R) D-1500 documentation mentions its Integrated PCH Logic supports
Flash chips up to 64Mbytes.
D-1500 Integrated PCH documenation however has inconsistencies regarding
FADDR register width and says nothing about particular commands issued
to support 64Mbytes of Flash.

Nevetheless the tests on Xeon(R) CPU D-1548 with 512Mbit Flash chips
Macronix MX25L51245G and Micron MT25QL512A showed that erase, write and
read operations work just fine after SPINOR_OP_READ_4B and
SPINOR_OP_READ_FAST_4B are white-listed (currently only
SPINOR_OP_READ_FAST_4B is used and only for Macronix).
