Hi, Pratyush,

I forgot to remove few checks, would you please remove them when applying?
See below.

As Michael suggested spi_nor_match_name() returns NULL or valid entry, so this
check is not necessary, let's remove them.

also according to Michael, this change is not needed as spi_nor_get_flash_info() can't
return NULL. Here we can keep the code as it was. Let me know if you want me to respin.
