fixup hooks is fine if we want to fix a wrong SFDP table.
fixup flags for settings that are not SFDP discoverable, i.e. where the table
is missing.

3/ FIXUP_FLAGS: flags that indicate support that can be discovered
   via SFDP ideally, but can not be discovered for this particular flash
   because the SFDP table that indicates this support is not defined by
   the flash. In case the table for this support is defined but has wrong
   values, one should instead use a post_sfdp() hook to set the SNOR_F
   equivalent flag.

Ok, will do. Can I add your R-b tag on a local v6 with this change that you
proposed? It will spare me of sending v6.

Thanks,
