Subject: [PATCH] mtd: spi-nor: add support for MRAM Everspin EM008LXB

The Everspin EM008LXB MRAM has 8Mb and is populated on a custom board
using Microchip's PCI12000 spi host controller running on low 30MHz clock.
According to Everspin Read Fast (0xb) command below 60MHz is neither
specified and nor tested. Test shows that using Read Fast (0xb) will
result in reading inconsistent data in this setup but writing is fine, so
only supporting Read (0x3) command should be acceptable for the moment.
The device is JEDEC compatible (JESD251 and JESD251-1) but not able to
provide SFDP information.

For spec v3.2 refer to www.everspin.com/file/158315/download.

Successfully tested according to
