That is not the tree I mentioned in my previous mail. Why do you
cherry-pick the changes instead of just trying the spi-nor/next
tree?

Have a look at
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mtd/20220510140232.3519184-2-michael@walle.cc/
wanted_size can be 0. In this case spi_nor_select_uniform_erase()
should return the biggest valid erase type. Could you please check that
(1) spi_nor_select_uniform_erase() return non-NULL
(2) check what value erase->size has (I guess it should be 64k in your
case)
From what you tell me erase->size should be zero. If that is the
case look at spi_nor_parse_bfpt() where the erase sizes are parsed.
Also take a look at spi_nor_parse_4bait() where the erase types might
be cleared again.
I've checked your SFDP data and it contains three valid erase sizes
and opcodes for 3byte addressing and two valid erase opcodes for 4
byte addressing. So that looks all good. After all the SFDP parsing
I expect that you have two valid erase types:
- erase size 4096 with erase opcode 21h
- erase size 65536 with erase opcode DCh

I've got two tested-by's with two different flashes, so yes, I'm
pretty sure it works in principle. It might still be something
wrong with your flash though.
