If 4BAIT table appears before SMPT then, nor->addr_width is set to 4 before
SMPT table is parsed. This causes SMPT parser code to use addr_width of 4
for reading current sector map configuration in spi_nor_get_map_in_use()
if SMPT_CMD_ADDRESS_LEN reads SMPT_CMD_ADDRESS_LEN_USE_CURRENT (see
spi_nor_smpt_addr_width()). Instead code should be using the value
presented by BFPT_DWORD1_ADDRESS_BYTES field. On S28HS family of devices
this bug leads to selection of invalid sector mapping thus causing erase
and write failures.

Fix this by parsing 4BAIT address table at the very end after all other
parameter tables are parsed.

I'm not convinced this is the best way to go about this. What if we have 
another table tomorrow that introduces some other side effect? Will we 
special-case all those as well? IMO a better way of going about this 
would be to make these parsers not affect the current state of the 
flash, but instead store that information as a possible future state of 
the flash. Then we can use that to finally decide what we want to do in 
spi_nor_set_addr_width(). In fact, that information is already stored 
via SNOR_F_HAS_4BAIT (though I'm not too opposed to adding a 
nor->params->addr_width).

I see this as a cleaner alternative to your approach. We do need to be 
careful about any obscure bugs here like with [0] though.
