Hi all,

We are introducing a new SPI-NOR library/framework for MTD, to support various
types of SPI-NOR flash controllers which require (or benefit from) intimate
knowledge of the flash interface, rather than just the relatively dumb SPI
interface. This library borrows much of the m25p80 driver for its abstraction
and moves this code into a spi-nor module.
If this is a common library, then the more common approach to solve this
would be to have each driver that uses it to select MTD_SPI_NOR rather
than depend on it. That way you can drop this whole series to update the
default configurations.
