I suggest to activate CONFIG_SYS_UPDATE_FLASH_SIZE
Then you get the update_flash_size (int flash_size) function
called after the cfi driver counted the flash size.

examples:
[hs at pollux u-boot]$ grep -lr update_flash_size .
./board/jupiter/jupiter.c
./board/tqc/tqm8272/tqm8272.c
./lib_ppc/board.c
[hs at pollux u-boot]$

bye
Heiko
