I don't have such a SOM handy. I can try to "produce" one next week.

I tested a modified DT with the 'reg' property set to 1 to simulate an 
unpopulated SPI flash. The driver probe seems to fail gracefully:

  m25p80 spi1.1: unrecognized JEDEC id bytes: ff, ff, ff

Is this test sufficient to ensure the safety of this patch?
