The spi_nor{} is cloned from the m25p{}.
The spi_nor{} can be used by both the m25p80 and spi-nor controller.

We also add the spi_nor_xfer_cfg{} which can be used by the two
fundamental primitives: read_xfer/write_xfer.

 1) the hooks for spi_nor{}:
    @read_xfer/write_xfer: We can use these two hooks to code all
             the following hooks if the driver tries to implement them
             by itself.

    @read_reg: used to read the registers, such as read status register,
             read configure register.
    @write_reg: used to write the registers, such as write enable,
             erase sector.
    @read_id: read out the ID info.
    @wait_till_ready: wait till the NOR becomes ready.
    @read: read out the data from the NOR.
    @write: write data to the NOR.
    @erase: erase a sector of the NOR.

 2) Add a new field sst_write_second for the SST NOR write.

Does the vybrid really support accelerated SPI NOR register IO or does it 
emulate it with read/write or read_xfer/write_xfer accessors ? If the later, 
just drop this stuff for now.

How do you specify what to erase (sub-sector, sector, whole chip) here ?

The vybrid does not support the accelerated SPI NOR register IO.
these hooks are for Lee's driver.

What is the "stuff" mean? the "write_enable" ?

I use a write_reg(OPCODE_ERASE_CHIP) to erase the whole chip.
Please read the patch 3.

This hook is used to erase a sector.

Btw, what is the sub-sector mean? which opcodes for the sub-sector?

This stuff -- I mean 'read SPI NOR register' and 'write SPI NOR register'. I 
would love to see an API which grows as needed, not an API which is bloated by 
unused function right from the start.

I suspect we might need a much better documentation for this structure, it is 
hardly clear which function does what ;-)

> Btw, what is the sub-sector mean? which opcodes for the sub-sector?

On large chips with for example 64K big sectors, you can erase a sub-sector 
area, usually a 4K one. This reduces the wear of the chip. See these defines in 
m25p80.c :

  46 #define OPCODE_BE_4K            0x20    /* Erase 4KiB block */
  48 #define OPCODE_BE_32K           0x52    /* Erase 32KiB block */
  49 #define OPCODE_CHIP_ERASE       0xc7    /* Erase whole flash chip */

It's not in Mainline yet, but the patches are on the list.

If you search for st_spi_fsm, you'll find them.

I should send out my fsl-quadspi driver in the next version.

The read_reg/write_reg are implemented by the m25p80 and fsl-quadspi
now.

I think Lee's driver can implemente the read_xfer/write_xfer.

sorry, i will add more comment in the next version.

ok.

the @erase hook can be used for sub-sector too.

I don't quite get how, but maybe you can elaborate on that one more in the next
