Do you have any idea of how to go about implementing it in a more
cleaner way?(taking care of all what the spi controller hardware needs to
do for the memory mapped mode.). I understand doing a memcpy in the caller
itself, but how to tackle the spi controller configuration at that point 
of time.
Memory mapped is  a spi controller feature rather than a flash.
