This patch was meant as a quick "hack" rather than a complete solution,
that's why I didn't bother adding proper commit message, S-o-b etc. But
since I'm the author, I can do that promptly, whenever that's needed.

The main limitation is that I checked only a single datasheet (likely
Winbond) so other models might require different treatment. Another is
that such a patch is mostly a bad substitute for proper hardware design.
