During SFDP parsing it is seen that the IS25WP256d device is missing 4BAIT (4-Byte address instruction table), due to which it's page program capacity doesn't get correctly populated and the device gets configured with 4-byte Address Serial Input Page Program i.e. SNOR_PROTO_1_1_1 even though it can work with SNOR_PROTO_1_1_4. Here using the post bfpt fixup hooks we update the page program settings to 4-byte QUAD Input Page program operations. The patch is tested on HiFive Unleashed A00 board and it benefits few seconds of average write time for entire flash write.
