yes but please use an inline function which will allow better compiler check
and error message
as done in a lots of the linux drivers as example the netdev with this
static inline void *netdev_priv(const struct net_device *dev)
{
	return dev->priv;
}

sorry no beacause everyone does not have the board to test it, a compile error
will at least help use to check if we brake the board or not

not necessarely
does you driver allow multiple instance of mflash?
if no you does not implement the function
