Please can you send me the register fields information for the
CQSPI controller used in this device?
I wanted to verify if atall there were any mismatch between the
controller I have tested with vs your SOC's controller.

It maybe that STIG mode may have some different way of configuring/using
on your SoC.

However at this point it's only a guess and I will wait till I have the
exact information on the controller specs being used in this device
along with the register descriptions.
