Thanks for your testing. I have just sent the patch to review.

I just mentioned about the actual issue behaviors as not worked 
chip_good() on S29GL964N and not worked chip_ready() on 
MX29GL512FHT2I-11G before etc.
Anyway let me recheck the data sheet details as just checked it again 
quickly but needed more investigation to understand.
