I'm not sure how to do this, but from what I can gather, flash chips 
that implement manufacturer ID continuation codes return >3 bytes in 
response to RDID. Is this correct?

To do this, in tools/spi/spidex_fdx.c I set buf[0] = 0x9F, and then 
executed this with a large recvbuf:

$ sudo ./a.out -m 6 /dev/spidev0.0
/dev/spidev0.0: spi mode 0x0, 8 bits per word, 10000000 Hz max
response( 6,  7):  25 70 18 25 70 18

It looks like the 3-byte response has cycled, suggesting this flash chip 
does not implement continuation codes.

I will do this in v3.
