Yes, I did this for my own use, but Russell King did so
independently, and his version got checked in to CVS.
Plus, he knows what he's doing, so his version is
better (after I had him clarify the part numbers).

That's quite true.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it
should _always_ be safe to probe for JEDEC first, and CFI
second.  So _all_ the mtd/maps drivers should do this,
and there should in fact be a systematic method that they
all use.  Like having a "map_flash" virtual probe that calls
first "jedec" and then "cfi_probe", if and only if each in
turn is compiled into the kernel.
