I'm sorry, but we don't accept any new parts, which clearly emulates
an EEPROM and has no concept of erase blocks (or don't even emulate
the erase opcode). I understand, that it was very convenient to have
a block device. But I want to move away from that NO_ERASE hack and
having two different drivers for the same hardware device.

Maybe someone in the loop has an idea how to move forward regarding
the filesystem issue.

We dropped adding names of the flashes for new parts, because of
notorious id reuse.
