Please note that the 2MiB on board flash is not supported by your
platform driver, which is handled by drivers/mtd/maps/ts5500_flash.c. I
guess it would be best to either merge that file into
drivers/platform/x86/ts5xxx-sbcinfo.c or select CONFIG_MTD_TS5500 in the
Kconfig.

In addition, the flash is used by the BIOS as RFD FTL, so possibly
CONFIG_RFD_FTL should be selected too.

Thanks,
Sean
