- As per datasheet, table 10 on page 18, Manufacturer code is 0x89
(column "data" for parameter "Manufacturer Code").
- On the datasheet, I agree with you that the device code is
advertised as either 0x88e1 or 0x8821. I changed the byte array
to something wrong in order to have the debug warning on the JEDEC id
bytes, and this is the log:

spi-nor spi0.0: unrecognized JEDEC id bytes: 89 da 18 00 00 00

Second and third byte are "0xda" and "0x18". I am not an expert in the
spi-nor driver, but from my understanding
(if it's wrong, please correct me) the spi-nor driver tries to match
the the read bytes from the memory with the ones
in the tables. I don't know if the datasheet is wrong also in that
cell of the table, or if I am interpreting the data wrongly.
