This property is for optimizing output voltage impedance and is
specific to each board. It overwrites the default set by the flash
device. Various flash devices support different impedances.

Mh, this seems to be very tailored to this flash chip. Eg. the "Vcc/2", is this something specific to this flash or is this some kind of common usage? For example, Winbond flashes specifies the output driver strength in percent.
Settings are 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% there.

I'd have to ask a hardware guy, if one could convert between these two
representations of the driver strength.

Rob, do you know how is this case ususally handled? Can there be different
properties, like:

output-driver-strength-ohms
output-driver-strength-percent

or similar.
