mtd: m25p80: remove M25PXX_USE_FAST_READ Kconfig
Remove the compile-time option for FAST_READ, since we have run-time
support for detecting it. This refactors the logic for enabling
fast-read, such that for DT-enabled devices, we honor the
"m25p,fast-read" property but for non-DT devices, we default to using
FAST_READ whenever the flash device supports it.
Normal READ and FAST_READ differ only in the following:
* FAST_READ supports SPI higher clock frequencies [1]
* number of dummy cycles; FAST_READ requires 8 dummy cycles (whereas
READ requires 0) to allow the flash sufficient setup time, even when
running at higher clock speeds
Thus, for flash chips which support FAST_READ, there is otherwise no
limiting reason why we cannot use the FAST_READ opcode instead of READ.
It simply allows the SPI controller to run at higher clock rates. So
theoretically, nobody should be needing the compile-time option anyway.
[1] I have a Spansion S25FL128S datasheet which says:
"The maximum operating clock frequency for the READ command is 50
MHz."
And:
"The maximum operating clock frequency for FAST READ command is 133
MHz."
