That's a common pattern and we try hard to figure that out during
probe time instead of hardcoding it. E.g. by looking at the SFDP
data. Have a look at various fixups in drivers/mtd/spi-nor/.

compatibles are really the last resort to distinguish flash devices.

Next time, please mention such information in the commit message,
please.

Also please have a look at
https://docs.kernel.org/driver-api/mtd/spi-nor.html
