[PATCH v5 3/5] mtd: devices: m25p80: add support for mmap read request

Certain spi controllers may provide accelerated interface to read from
m25p80 type flash devices. This interface provides better read
performance than regular SPI interface.
Call spi_flash_read(), if supported, to make use of such interface.
