I've placed the results of the scan below.
The problem is that in 8-bit mode the code that scans the CFI does not follow
the specification.
In the specification to read the CFI data you write 0x98 to address 0xAA, not
address 0x55 as you do in 16-bit mode. flash_offset_cfi is set to 0x55 which
in this case is wrong and won't work. When it tries 16-bit mode then it writes
to address 0xAA which causes it to work.
