[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] Fix wrong ID for 28F256P30 in flash.h

Intel was inconsistent in their device IDs for the P30 Strata NOR. The header flash.h has incorrect device IDs for the top- and bottom-mapped versions of the 32 MB chips as a result. It's an easy mistake to make...

Thanks for the update. However, the CFI driver actually does not use these macro.
Is there a place (custom driver) that this ID was used an caused a problem?
I personally actually want to remove these macros for any device that could be serviced by cfi_flash.c driver.

That would break all custom drivers that use these; and there are systems that cannot use the CFI driver because of size restrictions.

Obviously, I would not remove the ones that are in use but I suspect there are some that are not in use after switching to cfi_flash.c.
I think for new flash that is cfi compliant and could be serviced by cfi_flash.c there is no reason to define these macros.
Whenever I have some time, I actually want to improve cfi_flash.c to handle non-cfi flash as well. It will use jedec ids stored in a table so these macros would not be much useful.
Best regards, Tolunay

Sure.

/me crosses his fingers that Tolunay soon will have "some time". ;-)
