Actually, I realized setting SNOR_F_4B_OPCODES when the BFPT advertises
4_BYTES_ONLY is incorrect as 4bytes only can mean "use the 3B opcodes
but pass address on 4 bytes". Here is a new version of this patch [1].
Feel free to pick it up and send it along with your "SFDP 4-byte Address
Instruction Table" patch (I have not reason to send it alone since the
problem I was trying to solve is no longer fixed by [1]).
