Now that M25P80 depends on MTD_SPI_NOR_BASE (which I proposed to rename
to MTD_SPI_NOR a few hours ago), shouldn't we be updating everybody's
defconfigs? As it stands, the defconfigs that use M25P80 will just drop
it silently when built.

And if so, I'm not sure how this should be handled. Should defconfig
patches be sent to their respective arch maintainers?

Also, I think m25p80.c is no longer a "self-contained MTD device driver"
and should be moved under drivers/mtd/spi-nor/.

(Once these questions are settled, did you want to handle cooking the
patches, Huang, or should I?)
