What do you find useful about these prints? Maybe you mean that you'd
like some indicator that the SPI NOR probed successfully? How abut
adding a debug message at the end of mtd_device_register(), or otherwise
after mtd_device_register() is called?

Yes, if we're going to keep these sort of prints I think we should
definitely lower them from info to dbg. It will speed the boot time and
stop polluting the kernel log.
