[PATCH v4 3/6] mtd: spi-nor: macronix: Handle ID collision b/w MX25L3233F and MX25L3205D

Macronix has a bad habbit of reusing flash IDs. While MX25L3233F supports
RDSFDP opcode, MX25L3205D does not support it and does not recommend
issuing opcodes that are not supported ("It is not recommended to adopt
any other code not in the command definition table, which will potentially
enter the hidden mode.").

We tested the RDSFDP on the MX25L3205D and the conclusion is that the
flash didn't reply anything. Given that it is unlikely that RDSFDP will
cause any problems for the old MX25L3205D, differentiate between the two
flashes by parsing SFDP.

Tested MX25L3233F. Generated a 256 Kbyte random data and did an erase,
write, read back and compare test. The flash uses for reads
SPINOR_OP_READ_1_4_4 0xeb, for erases SPINOR_OP_BE_4K 0x20, and for writes
SPINOR_OP_PP 0x02.
