Just a few things before I start reviewing the patches:

1/ commit title prefix should be "mtd: cfi: " not "mtd:nor:"
2/ Don't know how you send your patches, but patches 1 to 3 should be
   "In-Reply-To" your cover letter, which is not the case here.
   Normally, git send-email does that automatically.
