The patch series aims to add memory mapped support for TI qspi

My question is, shall we not wait for the new SPI NOR framework to be well
fleshed out and only then implement this controller driver on top of it ?
I think it will still take lot of time for spi framework to come to
alignment
and get merged in the mainline. Till then, m25p80 development should
go on independently. Once, the spi framework is ready, I can myself port
this into the new framework.
I have a feeling this patchset adds quite a lot of ad-hoc hacks into the m25p80
driver, which would become dead code once converted to the SPI NOR framework.
I dont think that spi framework till now provides capabilities which can
be used
to handle memory mapped cases.
I did a quad mode support for m25p80 which easily got cloned into the
new spi framework.
Same can be done for the memory mapped support too
Best regards,
Marek Vasut
