The commit message is not entirely correct; for example "virt" creates
each flash device in the create_one_flash() function, with manual
qdev_create / qdev_prop_set_* / qdev_init_nofail /
memory_region_add_subregion.

So I recommend updating the commit message to say,

... TYPE_CFI_PFLASH01 devices need to be mapped by
pflash_cfi01_register *or equivalent* and can't be used...

With that,
