> [Yunhui] your mean that I should add such as the following code:
        #define QUADSPI_QUIRK_ERRATA_9282         (1 << 4)
        static inline int has_errata_num_a009282(struct fsl_qspi *q)
        {
                 return q->devtype_data->driver_data & QUADSPI_QUIRK_ERRATA_9282;
        }

I mean QUIRK can be used even for HW limitation, but it's not necessary to
use ERRATA number as QUIRK name, you can name it with natural language,
such as QUADSPI_QUIRK_ADASZ_8BYTE_LIMIT, and describe the reason in
comments.
