Now that the SPI memory interface was introduced by Boris [1], it is possible to move drivers from mtd/spi-nor to the SPI framework in order to use them for different type of SPI memory chips. Patch 1 adds a function spi_mem_get_name() to the SPI memory interface and a ->name field to struct spi_mem. Patch 2 uses it in m25p80.c to make it possible for SPI controller drivers to provide a custom naming scheme for the flash chip. This is needed to avoid breaking compatibility of mtdparts when switching from the old to the new driver. Patch 3 adds a driver for the Freescale QSPI controller to the SPI framework. Together with m25p80.c it can be used to interface SPI NOR flashes just as the old driver did. For this to work properly a few minor changes to the devicetrees are necessary (see patches 5 to 7). Patch 8 changes the defconfigs to use the new driver and patch 9 removes the old driver. Patch 10 and 11 remove 'fsl,qspi-has-second-chip' from the devicetrees. Patch 12 adjusts the MAINTAINERS file. The new driver was tested with i.MX6UL and a Micron SPI NOR @ 60MHz. The read performance of the new driver is almost the same or even better than the old driver, depending on the block size. The write performance is a bit slower on average (~10-15%). The new driver was also tested with the SPI NAND framework [2] and a Winbond W25M02GV flash. If someone has a board that uses both chips selects and/or both busses, it would be really nice to have the driver be tested on such a setup.
