I had this same issue and found that during cfi detect, specifically in flash_get_size the sector_size was not calculated correctly. From the u-boot command line execute flinfo and see if your flash sector boundaries look correct. If not then looking in the flash_get_size routine and you may have a problem with the sector size calculation. It's the (tmp & 0xffff) ? blah : 128 line of code - can't remember exactly.

By the way my target is an MPC8250 with Intel flash MT28F128J3 (32M, 128 sectors). I also had to rewrite the flash_make_cmd function because our board is setup to do byte lane swapping from the flash chips.

What is the flash configuration in the board configuration file? Also, please use flinfo command to see what U-Boot "thinks" about the flash.
