I will send the new patch series for taking care of the issue.

In Cardhu, there is 2 different type of flash, Winbond and Atmel.
There is hw rework require in Cardhu A02 to enable the serial flash and
it is already taken care in Cardhu A04. I will forward the hw rework
details to you in internal mail communication.

Also Serial flash is in CS1, not in CS0. So even if you have hw rework,
above change will not work.

I had tested on different way earlier (dynamic allocating master for
serial flash) and also tested on above method.
For this I enable MTD, MTD_CHAR and MTD_M25P80.
Debug prints as:
[ 1.279424] m25p_probe
[ 1.282536] m25p80 spi32766.1: w25q32 (4096 Kbytes)
[ 1.287418] mtd .name = spi32766.1, .size = 0x400000 (4MiB)
.erasesize = 0x00
001000 (4KiB) .numeraseregions = 0
[ 1.298120] m25p_probe() returns 0
