^^ This line doesn't match the subject or the content of the patch.

^^ What is this change doing in this series anyway? You're touching MTD
stuff, not SPI stuff, and this string doesn't get used in any driver. Is
this controller somehow related, or is it a separate IP block that
happens to be on some of the same SoCs?

Anyway, you should send this kind of stuff to the SPI list, not the MTD
one.

Brian
