spi-nor 5.11 regression: Division by zero in kernel

Hi,

It seems that kernel 5.11 broke spi-nor on Broadcom Northstar (BCM5301X)
platforms.

The problem seems to be spi_nor_spimem_read_data() which calculates:
op.dummy.nbytes = (nor->read_dummy * op.dummy.buswidth) / 8;

On Northstar this happens to be:
op.dummy.nbytes = (0 * 0) / 8;

That results in bcm_qspi_bspi_set_flex_mode() dividing by zero in the:
bpp |= (op->dummy.nbytes * 8) / op->dummy.buswidth;

Could you take a look at that issue, please?
