With try & error, at least in my setup, I was able to reduce this to just RPCIF_DRCR. Dropping the burst mode I was able to 'fix' the two byte offset issue.

   The same, rpcif_dirmap_read(). I'm now thinking it works correctly, it's just
the writes that are borked.

> Regarding writes, in rpcif_io_xfer() in RPCIF_DATA_IN we have an additional place where burst mode is enabled:

   This works around the hardware bug where the SPI NOR RDID command's data bytes get
spoiled, leading to unrecognized flash chip. Well, there's a comment before this *if*.

   I've just tried that, here's the result:

spi-nor spi0.0: unrecognized JEDEC id bytes: 01 01 01 01 01 01                  

(and the flash doesn't get registered).

   It's taken but only with SPI NOR.

  I'll try doing that tomorrow...
