Actually, this is something which might need closer attention - and maybe some support in the device tree indicating which read or write width a device can accept?

There already is "device-width"; the drivers never should use any other access width unless they *know* that will work.

Hmm, unfortunately, it's usage is not clearly documented in mtd-physmap.txt, so I never thought of this parameter.  And IMHO the problem goes further - basically *any* chip which is attached to the LPB can be affected by this problem, so it might be better to have a more general approach like a "chip select property".
