With STM32 QSPI, it is possible to poll the status register of the device.
This could be done to offload the CPU during an operation (erase or
program a SPI NAND for example).
spi_mem_poll_status API has been added to handle this feature.
This new function take care of the offload/non-offload cases.
For the non-offload case, use read_poll_timeout() to poll the status in
order to release CPU during this phase.
For example, previously, when erasing large area, in non-offload case,
CPU load can reach ~50%, now it decrease to ~35%.
