The type-cast looks clumsy.
The type of 'retval' is retval; thus, '%zd' can be used,
instead of '%d', as below.

 +              dev_err(&flash->spi->dev, "error %zd reading FSR\n",
 +                              retval);

I agree with Marek Vasut's opinion.
If there is no reason, please don't use it.
