OK. I'll look into this issue seriously and reply on that thread later.

OK. I'll fix it in v11.

I had referred to the implementation of spi_nor_write. But now it seems much
simpler and clearer above. I'll apply this code in v11. Thank you very much.

In spi_nor_write, nor->write is called with the len not bigger than nor->page_size.
I wrongly thought nor->page_size was always smaller than HIFMC_DMA_MAX_LEN.
I'll rewrite this function referring to _read function. Thank you!
