I'm not fan of this either but this was requirement from the SPI-NOR
maintainers before any new features can be added, and we have a bunch of
new hardware that needs to be supported :(

Sure, I can take a look at the array you suggest if that helps to get
things moving. Any objections anyone for doing this?

OK.

intel_spi_erase() does further checks based on the opcode:

        switch (opcode) {
        case SPINOR_OP_SE:
                cmd = HSFSTS_CTL_FCYCLE_ERASE_64K;
                break;

        case SPINOR_OP_BE_4K:
                cmd = HSFSTS_CTL_FCYCLE_ERASE;
                break;

        default:
                return -EINVAL;
        }

I should probably add comment on the caller to make it clear though.
