I just re-tested SPI NOR on SoCratres. And it also is broken starting 
with this commit:

$ git bisect good
0f36f957f4108d2d1d935e3076b7ae91f4e65a7d is the first bad commit
commit 0f36f957f4108d2d1d935e3076b7ae91f4e65a7d

Even the v2015.04 release has non-working SPI NOR I'm afraid. In current 
master its fixed again. This patch here fixes this bug:

b3d023b4058acc83d211555e62068f84e322bcac
"dm: spi_flash: fix wrong dependency"

I'll resend another mail to Tom, asking him to queue this patch for a 
potential v2015.04 stable release.

Thanks,
Stefan
