I chose to do it this way, since as far as I can tell, most quad-spi
drivers (with the exception of mtk_snfi_spi.c, octeon_spi.c, spi-sifive.c,
and ti_qspi.c) deal with cycles and not bytes. The spi-nor system also
specifies dummies in cycles and only converts them to bytes when
creating a struct spi_mem_op. SPI flash datasheets also typically refer
to dummies in cycles; since there is no data being transmitted, they
cannot be truly measured in bytes. Lastly, it is much easier to only
work in cycles when looking at logic analyzer traces. When switching
between 1-1-4 and 1-4-4 instructions, the meaning of "cycles" remains
the same, while "bytes" has a variable amount of time.

Sure.

Would be nice :)
