Here's my device register values.
005000ec 0800013e 01010200 00000000
DeviceID=0x0050, VersionID=0x013e

The lower 4 bits of VersionID is different. even though VersionID is
different. it's dangerous to detect the NOP 4 or not.

I sent the email to OneNAND person and share the result soon. (he's on
business trip and return at June 9).

Thank you,
