First of all I make a mistake with your name

Yes some of the patches are connected to Altera one and I need to look better
on them and I will look the next two days. Some of the patches are trivial:

- mtd: spinor: winbond: Describe several chips
- nand: raw: Kconfig: Correct some dependency issues
- cmd: mtd: benchmark: use lldiv() instead of 64-bit division
- spl: nand: typo 'destintion'
- mtd: spinand: add support for FudanMicro FM25S01A
- mtd: nand: raw: Drop SYS_NAND_SOFT_ECC from NAND_SANDBOX
- spi: spi-mem: fix coverity report CID 537478

Then I have applied the airoha spi patches on top of my queue.

I will not delay anymore I will be more active regarding my duties

This is the branch u-boot-nand-20250918 . If you still want to go further
in the discussion and make the process better, I'm more then happy to
follow your suggestions.

We will try to work better.
