@Rob: do you mean common to all slaves, i.e. described
in ./Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/jedec,spi-nor.txt?

@Geert: the problem here is that on the board for which I wrote this
patch, only one of the two NOR slaves can do quad SPI; the other one
can do dual at best. Setting a bus property would prevent the
quad-capable device from doing actual quad reads.
The fsl-quadspi driver already supports per-NOR read and erase commands
to support heterogeneous NOR setups. A per-NOR bus width property would
make sense in this light.
