There are a lot of changes happening/requested around this code. I
also proposed some patch touching this code, see
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/377917/

Right now there is a slow ongoing work on fixing some m25p80
regression, which also may touch the code you change. So I'll suggest
postponing this patch until we get a regression fixed and then work on
this hacky code again.
