It's not CFI compliant. But you can use the legacy infrastructure in this 
driver, which meant to support such chips. Please take a look at the following 
driver:

drivers/mtd/jedec_flash.c

Your board config header would need something like this:

/* Use common CFI driver */
#define CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI
#define CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
/* board provides its own flash_init code */
#define CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_LEGACY		1
#define CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI_WIDTH		FLASH_CFI_8BIT
#define CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LEGACY_512Kx8 1
...

Taken from include/configs/hcu4.h. This should give you an idea...

Cheers,
Stefan
