Yes you are correct, I will change this.

Yes we can use this shift, I will update

For this ZynqMP GQSPI controller parallel configuration, globally spi-nor should know about this stripe feature
And based on that address has to change.
As I mentioned in cover letter, this controller in parallel configuration will work with even addresses only.
i.e. Before creating address format(m25p_addr2cmd) in mtd layer, spi-nor should change that address based on stripe option.
I am updating this offset based on stripe option, and stripe option will update by reading dt property in nor_scan().
So the controller which doesn't support, then the stripe will be zero.
Or Can you please suggest any other way?

Const is removed in info struct, because to update info members based parallel configuration.
As I mentioned above, for this parallel configuration, mtd and spi-nor should know the details like
mtd->size, info->sectors, sector_size and page_size.
So during spi_nor_scan only mtd will update all these details, that's why I have added controller specific check to update those.
Can you please suggest, any other way to let mtd and spi-nor to know about this configuration without touching the core layers?
Please let me know, if I missed providing any required info.
