You are right, I will add this for NOR and SPI Flashes. My RFC was more about 
whether it is granted to add new members to struct mtd_info to get 
informations 

Alternatively, would not it be better to have something like this:

/sys/class/mtd/...
   nand0/
       manufacturer
       type
       onfi/
          version
          jedec_id
          ...
    nor0/
       cfi/
          manufacturer
          id

This would allow us not to abuse the sysfs directory of a MTD partition to 
contain chip specific informations.
