We were facing write and erase failures in NOR flashes without this fix.

Failure log:

But, I just bisected and got to know that the
commit b61c35e3404557779ec427c077f7a9f057bb053d
"mtd: spi-nor: spansion: Use nor->addr_nbytes in octal DTR mode in 
RD_ANY_REG_OP"
fixed this issue. My bad!
Lets drop this patch.

Thanks and Regards,
Santhosh.
