Geh, the macro stuff is something I don't really like, it feels like
it's obfuscating the code for little benefit. But that might be a matter
of my personal taste.

Well, you asked for it ... I demand that you implement it with a table! ;-)
I can see something like:
static const u8 spi_read_opcodes[][2] = {
{ SPINOR_OP_READ, SPINOR_OP_READ_4B },
{ SPINOR_OP_READ_FAST, SPINOR_OP_READ_4B_FAST },
}
...
u8 convert_opcode(u8 opcodes[][2], opcodesize) {
for (i = 0; i < opcodesize; i++)
if (opcodes[i][0] == opcode)
return opcodes[i][1];
return opcode;
}
It feels a bit more compact and explicit, but it might be just my taste.
