The SPI NAND core doesn't know how to switch the flash to Octal DTR
mode (i.e. which operations to perform). If the manufacturer hasn't
implemented the octal_dtr_enable() manufacturer_op, the SPI NAND core
wouldn't be able to switch to 8D-8D-8D mode and will also not be able
to run in 1S-1S-1S mode due to already selected 8D-8D-8D read/write
cache op_templates.

So, avoid choosing a Octal DTR SPI op_template for read_cache,
write_cache and update_cache operations, if the manufacturer_op
octal_dtr_enable() is missing.

After looking at your previous commit I don't see why this patch would
be needed. octal_dtr_enable() only updates the mode when it succeeds so
I don't think this patch is really needed.


I added it to prevent any errors happening dues to a missing implementation of octal_dtr_enable() from manufacturer driver side.
So, if the manufacturers skips the octal_dtr_enable() implementation, we want the spinand core to run in 1s-1s-1s mode.

Read/write/update op variant selection happens in select_op_variant(), much before octal_dtr_enable(). So just check if there is a definition of octal_dtr_enable in manufacturer ops and then only use 8D op variants.

Removing this wouldn't break anything in the current implementation.
Do you think we should drop this?
