You appear to have enabled a buswidth of 1, but not enabled an interleave 
of 1. This doesn't seem very useful - it's difficult to interleave more 
than one chip into a bus which is a single byte wide.

We should probably do Config.in magic to prevent this. Either that or 
something like...

 		cfi->interleave = CFIDEV_INTERLEAVE_1;

(PS. Please fix your From address)
