SPI Flash chip supports up to 33 MHz wihout fast read opcode.
Available frequencies are 112.5, 56.25, 37.5, 28.125, 22.5 etc.
This patch increases the nominal maximum frequency to 33 MHz,
reaching an effective increase from 22.5 to 28.125 MHz.

Formula to calculate SPI frequency:
Freq = 225 MHz / 2 / div

Before:

$ time dd if=/dev/mtd1 of=/dev/null bs=8M
0+1 records in
0+1 records out
real 0m 3.58s
user 0m 0.00s
sys 0m 3.57s

After:

$ time dd if=/dev/mtd1 of=/dev/null bs=8M
0+1 records in
0+1 records out
real 0m 2.95s
user 0m 0.00s
sys 0m 2.93s
