Well, 100% must map to some actual value. Which then can be used to create a discrete value table, which are then supported by the flash driver. E.g. for Micron not every flash supports the same set of settings for driver strength. Macronix uses similar settings (values and bitmask), but in a different register. But if some vendors have pretty much incompatible settings, it might be feasible to provide vendor specific settings, e.g. "micron,drive-strength = <45>" (for 45 Ohm) or "winbond,drive-strength = <100>" (for 100%).
