Hi Miquel,

Noted. I'll put that into v2.

Noted.

Right now I can't really test dual or quad because my SPI driver
doesn't know to do dual or quad io.
I plan to add those in once I can validate they work.

Ok I'll add those in. Is there a way I can test that my implementation is right?
I.e. is writing something, reading it back and checking if the data is
correct a good enough test here?
I don't really want to make it look like this flash is supported and
break someone's data. :)

Thanks,
