There are problems with this patch. Firstly, it misses any description
explaining why the change took place at all. From an outside observer
point of view, this change seems random at best.

Secondly, the change in itself makes no sense -- it just reorders the
entries in an array. I can only speculate here, that your SPI NOR was
recognised as some other part, right ? That's why moving the n25q032
higher resolved the problem for you, right ?

The problem is with the fragility of this code which matches the JEDEC
ID and type of the SPI NOR. I recall Huang had some patches which tried
to resolve this, not sure what the status of those patches is though.
