We added model #15 (3-byte address mode by default) to address special
requirement from a customer who needs to use bootrom with 3-byte addressing.
Anyway, I overlooked model # difference. Thanks for pointing out this.

I have just found that we can distinguish model # via BFPT DWORD16.
If Hardware reset, Software reset, or Power cycle can exit 4-byte address
mode, that means the device is 3-byte address mode by default.
The questions is can we implement in spi_nor_parse_bfpt() in sfdp.c or
post_bfpt_fixup() in manufacturer code?

Thanks,
