Using common spi flash operation function to replace private operation funtion
This patch is based on http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/177896/ which has been merged by Mike frysinger
Mike, do you think this is a fix? Should it go into 2012.10? Will you take it?

why do you take fixed value for sector size here?
The fixed number fit for both AT25 and AT26 serials. So, I take it.
Actually, we can calculate it as:
q> asf->flash.sector_size = page_size * params->pages_per_block *
params->blocks_per_sector So, may I need to change it?
I got it. The current driver for AT45 is written to only support page erase, therefore the page_size == sector_size. The AT26 on the other hand will now use the generic API which uses sector erase instead. Therefore we have different values at all, am I right?
The only supported DF of at26 type is currently [1] which in fact has 4KiB erase size. Unfortunately others (at least [2]) have another layout. But this could be adopted if such a chip is supported in the future.

And here you correlate number of sectors with page size ... but we may have page_size != sector_size for some at26 devices, aren't we?
This is from old driver and this line is moved away. For at26 devices, it is used the fixed number 4096 for sector size. Please take following as a reference.
case DF_FAMILY_AT26F: case DF_FAMILY_AT26DF: asf->flash.read = spi_flash_cmd_read_fast;
asf->flash.write = dataflash_write_p2;
asf->flash.erase = dataflash_erase_p2;

Yea, I got that already. The only thing I asked why you correlate these sector related parameters (blocks_per_sector and nr_sectors) with the page_size.
I think this change is Ok.

@Mike: As I understand you I should take patch #2 to #4 while you will take this one, am I right?
