Take a look at the patch that Jan Rovins posted on Thursday for the MCPN765
board. It deals with it in a different way - by acknowledging that what you
effectively have is a 64-bit bus.
The alternative is to deal with the flash as two entirely separate 32-bit
pairs, and just have two separate map drivers giving access to even and odd
words respectively.
I'd like to see the cfi_jedec code removed completely and JEDEC probing put
in a separate probe function, rather than more special cases added to it.
