Thanks for all your effort for code reviewing.
Our mt2701-nor's hardware is designed base on mt8713-nor,
even so, there would be some slight difference.
If I don't misunderstand your viewpoint in this discussion,
there's no need to drop mt2701-nor compatible.
And if not, is there any other suggestion?
