Add the Everspin EM0004LXB 4Mb (512KB) Industrial STT-MRAM Persistent
Memory.
This device is JEDEC compatible (JESD251 and JESD251-1), but it is not
able to provide SFDP information.

Did you try the at25 driver if it will fit your usecase? Judging
from your last response, it sounds like it will do.

Will it also work without SPI_NOR_NO_ERASE? Also, the flash supports
fast read, so drop NO_FR. Also, please have a look at [1] for the
testing requirements.

Thanks.

Yes, you are right, it works with at25 driver!
Thanks!

At the moment I have to use a page size of 256 bytes, using "atmel,at25".
Since the Everspin EM0004LXB MRAM doesn't have problem with any page size
(theoretically I could use a single page size of 512KB), can I update the
at25.c driver with a support for the EM0004LXB MRAM, as already done for
the Cypress fm25 F-RAM?

Feel free to propose a patch. Keep in mind that it is another ML and
maintainer. Just use get_maintainer.pl. Keep me on CC if you like.
