In linux kernel since version 2.6.12  
This option does not enable any code directly, but will allow you to
select some other chip drivers which are now considered obsolete,
because the generic CONFIG_JEDECPROBE code above should now detect
the chips which are supported by these drivers, and allow the generic
CFI-compatible drivers to drive the chips. Say 'N' here unless you have
already tried the CONFIG_JEDECPROBE method and reported its failure
to the MTD mailing list at <linux-mtd@lists.infradead.org>
