I did not mean it as a complaint. I was busy too, so I understand.
Keep up the good work.

    Both the flash driver and config does not influence any other code
    so it can not break anything.


We're usually don't demand as much for new drivers or targets that follow the same pattern as existing code. As you say it can't cause regressions and it's better to have basic support than none at all. Things are different for additions that requires changes to infrastructure or workarounds.

In your case the lack of review is simply due to lack of time and energy. I apparently reviewed a first version in September and have not followed that up when new versions were pushed. Due to the volume of patches that happens all the time and is exactly why contributors have to ping someone to get attention. Explain to the previous reviewer that the issues have been taken care of and that the change is now ready. Just pushing a new version does not automatically trigger me to re-review it, since for all I know it could just be a rebase without any improvements.

When the change and all its dependencies has +1 from independent reviewers/testers and there are no known issues remaining, ask a maintainer to take a look and submit it. Of course, the maintainer may have further comments that may require another round.
