8/16/32 bit JEDEC probe

Hi list,
I have an interesting case to submit.
I have a SystemBase ARM9 (AT91SAM9260) Eddy-CPU-V2 that can be populated
with either a 32MB SST 39VF3201 (Mfr: 0x00bf, Id: 0x235b) or a 64MB EON
EN29LV640B (Mfr: 0x007f, Id: 0x22cb) part. Mine has the SST part.
As none of these chips were defined in jedec_probe.c, I defined them
there.
However, when the probe is done, an SST 49LF080A (Mfr: 0x00bf, Id:
0x005b) is found instead of my SST 39VF3201...
What is remarkable is that both chips have the same LSB Id!
My conclusion is that the less discriminating 8-bit device detection has
precedence over the more discriminating 16-bit device.
Shouldn't this be the other way around (ie. first detect 32, then 16,
then 8 bit devices)?
If I comment the SST 49LF080A definition, everything works as expected.
Best regards,
