Probably ; Graham ?

This is the Direct mode thing, correct ? We don't support this, so I think
we should drop this bit altogether and keep only one single address in this
field.

Is there any documentation for this piece to which you can point me ?

No, we cannot, it's not part of the controller's base address, is it ?

Graham ? SoCFPGA uses this decoded-cs thing, so we absolutely can not remove
it from the driver.

You can have a controller with no SPI NORs on it.
