Hmm. After looking a bit closer this doesn't seem to be this easy. I would 
like to add this function prototype to include/flash.h where other defines 
and function prototypes are collected right now. But this breaks some other 
boards implementing "their own" flash driver in their board directories, like 
AP1000, cpci5200, G2000, ppmc8260 and sbc405 (maintainers added to CC).

All those boards should be able to use the common CFI flash driver. I would 
really like to see those boards converted to this driver. It should be pretty 
easy. So maintainers from the boards mentioned above, if you need any help 
with this just let me know.

Thanks.

Best regards,
Stefan
