Good catch!

However, I think we could return the return code of
spi_nor_wait_till_ready() instead, like already done in
spansion_quad_enable().

Looking at the source code of spi_nor_wait_till_ready() /
spi_nor_wait_till_ready_with_timeout(), both function return 0 when
successful, a negative error code otherwise.

Best regards,

Cyrille
