Thanks.

BTW, one interesting bit about this in case you didn't know already.
Since this is playing with Octal DTR enable/disable, you might also want
to double-check you are actually using Octal DTR mode. This can be done
by looking at the SPI NOR debugfs entry (usually in
/sys/kernel/debug/spi-nor). You can "cat params" and see what protocols
are being used, and make sure 8D-8D-8D is being used.

AM625 SK _should_ be using 8D-8D-8D mode already, but I think it is
useful if you know how to confirm this assumption :-)
