A quick analysis shows that the only caller of the suspicious code is the
spinand_select_op_variant() function from the drivers/mtd/nand/spi/core.c
file.
According to the code the value of op->data.nbytes is equal to
Therefore it's maximum value a bit larger than 4Kb (I never seen flashes
with page size large than 4Kb). So op->data.nbytes always fits within
13 bits. As result an overflow will never happen.
Anyway it's better fix an issue to eliminate the error message.
