As the flash is defined now, all its characteristics can be discovered by
parsing SFDP. So instead of adding a new flash_info entry in the already
big array that we have, I would like us to focus more on a generic flash
driver which acts as a backup when the flash is not found in the flash_info
array. We can discover the flash particularities by parsing SFDP and we can
probe the flash based on that. Michael has already suggested this, would you
please help review it?
