Let's add this to my pile of "things to do when I'm having time
again" :)

Not sure where that comes from originally. But we are overwriting
what SFDP is figuring out, correct? Maybe we should do the same as
in macronix.c; just set it when it is not set. If the SFDP doesn't
specify the method, I'd say it is a fair assumption that any (older)
winbond flash use that stateful method to enter 4 byte addressing
mode. Newer flashes probably features SFDP.

For the extra ops.. I'm not sure if that is/was just a quirk for
that particular flash or if any winbond flash has that problem.
