Oh, so that would be w25q128jw--m / w25q128jw--q then ?

See above.

Be careful, I think you are conflating -xM/-xQ and _DTR and non-DTR 
variants of this W25Q128 flash. Look at [1] and [2] again, the ID 0x8018:

8.1.1 Manufacturer and Device Identification

Device ID       | (ID7 - ID0)        | (ID15 - ID0)
Instruction     | ABh, 90h, 92h, 94h | 9Fh

(non-DTR variant)
W25Q128JW-IQ/JQ | 17h                | 6018h
W25Q128JW-IM/JM*| 17h                | 8018h

-DTR variant:
W25Q128JW_IM/JM | 17h                | 8018h

So you should be able to tell the non-DTR variant of w25q128jw based 
purely on flash ID . You should also be able to tell whether the 0x8018 
flash is in fact DTR variant based on the presence of the extra DTR 
opcodes in SFDP. This:

if (id == 0x6018) {
   return W25Q128JWxxQ with QE=1
} else if (id == 0x8018) {
   if (SFDP indicates DTR commands present)
     return W25Q128JWxxM_DTR;
   else
     return W25Q128JWxxM (non-DTR);
}

Same thing applies to W25Q128JV/FV with id 0x4018:

Device ID            | (ID7 - ID0)        | (ID15 - ID0)
Instruction          | ABh, 90h, 92h, 94h | 9Fh
W25Q128FV (SPI Mode) | 17h                | 4018h
W25Q128FV (QPI Mode) | 17h                | 6018h

Device ID            | (ID7 - ID0)        | (ID15 - ID0)
Instruction          | ABh, 90h, 92h, 94h | 9Fh
W25Q128JV-IN/IQ/JQ   | 17h                | 4018h
W25Q128JV-IM*/JM*    | 17h                | 7018h

There the lowest common denominator is w25q128jv and we should be able 
to tell whether it is really w25q128fv by checking SFDP and see whether 
the QPI opcodes are supported.
