[PATCH 2/2] mtd: spi-nor: cadence-quadspi: Add support for direct access mode

[Cyrille Pitchen]

Hi Vignesh,

I guess setting the ENB_DIR_ACC_CTRL bit could be set once for all when you
set use_direct_mode to true, couldn't it?

It may improve the read performance even more. However not expecting much
difference for Page Program operations.

Then you could call directly call mempcy_fromio() from cqspi_read().
Not mandatory for me, since I also like the symmetry of the 2 functions:
cqspi_direct_read_execute() / cqspi_indirect_read_execute().

So it's up to you :)

Same comment here.

Please use dev_dbg() here insted of dev_info(). IMHO, this kind of output
is not really needed by regular users.

Otherwise, the series looks great!
