Did you have some REAL cases using SPI NOR that only supports upto fast-read
with Quad SPI driver? Neither fast-read or normal-read, which is actually more
general, supported in the driver, just because I didn't see any REAL cases till
now.

I didn't run against the patch, although IMO it's not that necessary. But I
don't think QuadSPI driver need to check the m25p,fast-read property again
since spi-nor layer has already done that. Adding the property in flash node
should work in the same way.
