No, platform could define its own timing. If there is definition for
the same chip,
driver would choose the one from platform definition first.

The only difference of cmdsetbetween the small page and large page is
at the read command.
While large page is 0x3000, small page is 0x0.
This handle is not address in this patch, but put to latter patch of
0006 in this seris patch set.
For whole patch set chnage is so large, that it is not easy to make it
very clear at each patch...

My original thinking is for the cmdset is almost standardized, so make
such change for global structure.
Well, the suggestion also make sense. I would revert this change.
