The hardware itself is limited to returning 4 ID bytes. QPIC reads the 
device ID and places it into the QPIC_NAND_FLASH_READ_ID register, which 
is 32‑bit wide. As a result, only 4 bytes of the device ID are available 
to software. The register stores the ID bytes in the order [31:24] = 
byte 3, [23:16] = byte 2, [15:8] = byte 1, [7:0] = byte 0.

Thanks,
Alam.
