This isn't the correct compatible string, according to the devicetree
binding [1], there is no compatible = "mr25h40" binding. The correct entry
would be
compatible = "everspin,mr25h40", "jedec,spi-nor";
I'm not familiar with ACPI and don't know wether you can specify a list,
nor am I convinced that it will work then. But it should be worth a try.
