From my cursory reading, everything looks fine and straightforward. Since you marked this as an RFC, I'll hold off committing until it is resent to the list.

 Hello:

This is my first try to implement the x16_as_x8 flash bank option. It is working for me as I would expect flash to work, but please consider this
patchset as work in progress since it may still has some flaws.

Al patches touch just src/flash/cfi.c file and should apply in this order to
trunk.

 The patchset consists of 4 patches, whose interest areas I
explain and comment below:

01-x16_as_x8-consolidate_addresses
· Manufacturer and device id retrieval in cfi_probe function weren't using
the generic flash_address. Use it there.

02-x16_as_x8-command_address
· Creation of a command_address function intended as flash addresses arranger depending on the x16_as_x8 parameter existence or not. This is basically an override of flash_address function, only that takes into account the x16_as_x8
parameter. The other options for this functionality would be adding an
additional parameter to flash_address function or, if it is shown that it is an equivalent of flash_address, include x16_as_x8 functionality into flash_address.

03-x16_as_x8-command_address-subst
· Substitution of flash_address function for command_address function, except on code specific to intel. I have just focused on spansion flashes and I hadn't review intel flash specifications, so I decided to be conservative at first. Maybe someone can tell if the command_address function is also valid for intel chips. If so this patch could be grown to include those or eventually include
the x16_as_x8 functionality into flash_address not needing this one.

04-x16_as_x8-multibyte_read
· cfi_query_u16 and cfi_query_u32 function uses multibyte accesses, this is 2 or 4 byte read. This will fail in the x16_as_x8 case since this would lead reading, e.g.: addresses 0x0 and 0x1 instead of 0x0 and 0x2 in the 16bit case.
Do a byte by byte read in the x16_as_x8 case.
