Subject: Re:Re: [PATCH] mtd: spi-nor: Return error when nor->addr_width not
 match the device size


Hi,
If the check is moved to
[2]https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v4.20-rc2/source/drivers/mtd/spi-nor/spi-nor.c#L3758,
the nor->addr_width selection logic may be needed to rework. 

I have sent an email to ISSI for the register value, but haven't got the reply.
Do you think it is better to add this check until I get the right answer from ISSI?
