You need to prove that all the flashes that you touch need this fixup,
i.e. dump their SFDP and show where's the wrong bit in the SFDP table.

Identifying wrong bit in the SFDP tables would be easy to spot if we had
a SFDP decoder. Something that we all agree that'd be a good thing to
have, but nobody can allocate time to do it. Pratyush I remember has
started a draft. Are you interested in introducing a SFDP decoder in
mtd-utils?

Also, if you touch all these flashes, will you please update them and
get rid of the stray flash info fields? I'm thinking of name, size, and
no_sfdp_flags.

Cheers,
