I think it may just be a
case of adding the right ID numbers and block sizes to the existing
Spansion SPI flash driver, though. I have a datasheet for the flash

flavour for armhf. All support for new ARMv7 platforms should be
added to that flavour by enabling the relevant drivers and DeviceTree
files, not by adding new flavours.
Highbank seems to be at least mostly ready for multi-platform.

Do these all need to be built in? For a multi-platform kernel we should
really be building drivers as modules by default.
