In attempt to spi_nor_scan() for an expected JEDEC compliant device by
reading RDID register don't return the first found non-JEDEC device
entry from spi_nor_ids[] table, if RDID is zero.
First of all zeroes in RDID may be evidence for not correctly working
SPI, secondly empty RDID can not be used to select a particular JEDEC
non-compliant device correctly.
The best possible solution is
* not to rely on spi_nor_read_id(), if expected device is non-JEDEC,
* not to substitute an expected JEDEC device with some arbitrary
chosen non-JEDEC device, if RDID is zero.
