Mainly because the existing code was just checking bit 3 and that
happened to worked for my use-case.

I'm happy to re-work it as you've suggested can anyone point me at the
datasheet for a 4/512 on-die chip (or just the part number I can lookup
on mircon's site).

Will do. I'll pull in your patch and base v4 on top of that.

I was thinking about removing this. The original code excluded 8/512 due
to lack of access to a chip that implements this, which I now have.

The problem is I don't know an exhaustive list of IDs that this applies
to. I guess having a list of known IDs and falling back to the current
detection is probably the best approach unless Micron get back to us
with some other method of detecting these and determining if it is
forceably enabled.
