"BYTE ENABLE: BYTE# low places the device in x8 mode. All data is then
input or output on DQ0-DQ7, while DQ8-DQ15 float. Address A0 selects
between the high and low byte. BYTE# high places the device in x16 mode,
and turns off the A0 input buffer. Address A1 then becomes the lowest
order address."

Yep, I was wrong. It couldn't work the way I was thinking of - you'd have
too few address lines to access the whole chip in x8 mode.

We do need to handle it in the CFI code, as we did before I broke it.
