Hi,

I'll put aside, that it's 4.19 (we should still focus on 4.14), can you please
explain in more detail, why we would need all this bacported patches?

>  * macronix: Fix ECC Status Read

I can understand this one.

>  * winbond: Add support for W25N01GV

This one as well, but then you need to remove existing one in the ipq40xx
patches or you're going to introduce build failure.

>  * Add support for GigaDevice GD5F1GQ4UExxG
>  * Add support for all Toshiba Memory products
>  * add support for GigaDevice GD5FxGQ4xA
>  * Add initial support for Toshiba TC58CVG2S0H

What devices currently in the tree need (or want) this? I mean, the more
patches, the more work during kernel bumps, so we should avoid it if the
patches are not necessary.
