In the end this driver will be used by the common FLASH user interface (cmd_flash.c, cmd_mem.c). So I prefer to have the "driver" for this interface in a common place for a better overview. And the only common place I can think of is drivers/mtd right now. We should probably add a subdirectory for NOR flash drivers: drivers/mtd/nor (or drivers/mtd/maps as done in Linux). BTW: This common place will prevent those multiple platform/board specific flash drivers we have right now as well.
