Nope, that is the device, not the driver.

The driver has a list of devices it is capable of driving. The kernel
uses that list to find the right driver.

Please define "not happy". Please show me the kernel log of it being
not happy.

We need to compare and contrast my kernel log, where it is happy with
"st,m25p16" against your kernel log where it is unhappy. Then we might
have some clues to understand what is going on.

Thanks
