Manually using -c and specifying MX25L3206E/MX25L3208E works.

This was interesting to me and worth a comment. I was following the wire diagram on the website but I'm using a pi 3b+. The layout is different and the CS is on GPIO 8 not 24. When I had it on 24 it was incorrectly detecting the EC as MX25L3206E/MX25L3208E and with 4MB in size. After swaping CS to GPIO 8 it was correctly detecting it as Winbond w25q64fv and 8MB is size.
