Hi, Amit,

Each flash that is connected in stacked mode should have a separate parameter structure. So, the flash parameter member(*params) of the spi_nor structure is changed to an array (*params[2]). The array is used to store the parameters of each flash connected in stacked configuration.
The current implementation assumes that a maximum of two flashes are connected in stacked mode and both the flashes are of same make but can differ in sizes. So, except the sizes all other flash parameters of both the flashes are identical.
Do you plan to add support for different flashes in stacked mode? If not, wouldn't it be simpler to have just an array of flash sizes instead of duplicating the entire params struct?
SPI-NOR is not aware of the chip_select values, for any incoming request SPI-NOR will decide the flash index with the help of individual flash size and the configuration type (single/stacked). SPI-NOR will pass on the flash index information to the SPI core & SPI driver by setting the appropriate bit in nor->spimem->spi->cs_index_mask. For example, if nth bit of nor->spimem->spi->cs_index_mask is set then the driver would assert/de-assert spi->chip_slect[n].

also, it's not clear to me why you read this property multiple times. Have you sent a device tree patch somewhere? It will help me understand what you're trying to achieve.
This is a little late in my opinion, as we don't have any sanity check on the flashes that are stacked on top of the first. We shall at least read and compare the ID for all.
Cheers, ta
