I googled the gd25q256 datasheet, and found 'C' generation
datasheet(GD25Q256C[1]) implements the JESD216 standards, it doesn't
have the QER(Quad Enable Requirements) field in BFPT, but it does have
the QE bit in SR1 bit6, this may be the reason why the method was
introduced.

As above mentioned, 'C' generation doesn't have the QER field in BFPT,
so no corresponding quad_enable method can be found in SFDP.
Regrading to 'D' generation [2], it implements the JESD216B standards,
the corresponding quad_enable method is spi_nor_sr2_bit1_quad_enable,
parsing the BFPT can get the right method.
As for 'E' generation[3], it also implements the JESD216B standards and
has the same status registers as defined in 'D' generation, but its
datasheet doesn't contain SFDP and BFPT definations, so there may be
some uncertain.
So, in summary, I think 'C' generation devices still need the post_bfpt
to add the correct quad_enable method, this can do some benefits to the
outdated devices. For sure, the post_bfpt method should distinguish the
JESD216 standards the first and then apply the correct quad_enable
method, I can cook another patch to do this.
