Do not check which flash type the SoC was booted from before
using this driver. Assume that the device tree is correct and use this
driver when it was added to device tree. This also removes a build
dependency to the SoC code.

Why?  Is this assumption reliably true?
Yes. We only have one type of flash interface in the device tree, as they 
are connected to the shared EBU (External Bus Unit).
That sounds board specific but this is a driver for a SoC?  In any case
this needs to end up in the commit log.
