I couldn't understand you clearly.

Earlier all erase/write they were calling spi_flash_cmd_wait_ready
with flash, timeout values.
spi_flash_cmd_wait_ready() is intern call to spi_flash_cmd_poll_bit()
with CMD_READ_STATUS and STATUS_WIP.

In my changes I have removed spi_flash_cmd_poll_bit() as there is no
other caller except spi_flash_cmd_wait_ready()
so all polling stuff on spi_flash_cmd_wait_ready() means, still
erase/program can call spi_flash_cmd_wait_ready() with
flash, timeout and CMD_READ_STATUS and STAUS_WIP were use directly
used on spi_flash_cmd_wait_ready() instead
of passing through spi_flash_cmd_poll_bit().

Any wrong here, please comment.

Thanks,
Jagan.
