Is this specified anywhere, or is this just a heuristic, to guess
whether we're getting valid IDs? Do we know anything about what opcodes
look like ...

Ugh, does that mean we get different IDs returned via the different
modes? That sounds like a disaster. What about all the flash that we
need 5+ bytes to differentiate? Just be glad we haven't come across any
Micron or Macronix like that yet?

Hmm, so you're passing implicit configuration data via the
nor->reg_proto field. So, spi-nor drivers now have to read that field
during every read_reg() invocation? Seems like either this should be:
 (a) a driver hook/callback, so we can just reconfigure a handful of
 times or
 (b) part of a parameter that gets passed as part of the function
 signature
