All these are either

1) old versions of flash drivers that predate the cfi flash
implementation, so they could be replaced by the CFI driver (if
there was someone to test this)

or

2) very special versions of flash drivers dealing with board specific
details that prevent the use of the CFI flash driver, in which case
they should remain in the board directories.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
