Device ID collision in amd_flash.c

The (obsolete) AMD NOR-flash driver has an "probe-table-entry" for
AM29BDS643D that happens to match AM29DL640G as well, even though they
have different block/sector-layouts.
I think the problem is that AMD is assigning device-IDs of more than
16-bits. Anyhow, both AM29BDS643D and AM29DL640G supports CFI, so I
would like to remove support for them in amd_flash.c (patch below) to
avoid problems.
OK to commit?

PS. Would this patch ever find it's way into Linux 2.4 or just Linux
2.6?
