I just want to bring this up again.

@Brian do you still have any problem with this patch? Should I use a
different approach and if so which? I think we agreed on that it is bad
when the flash chip driver decides which parser to use and it is not
possible to change it other that changing the code, but this is the
current situation with most drivers.
